I selected Xen (and also had the choice to select kvm). I rebooted into the Xen kernel, and when i now try to run vm-install as root, I get: ask@ewzw032:~> sudo env LC_ALL=C vm-install Error: None "xen-kernel" is installed.

Expected Results: vm-install should work. Did a little bit of debbugging by adding debug print statements to /usr/bin/vm-install. I found, that it errors out at line 243: defaults.connect = vminstall.options.calculate(options, defaults) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Charles,
no, it doesn't. What's that python line doing, which causes the error?
The call recalculates the defaults based on changes that may have been made by passed in command line arguments. It is code that hasn't changed much over time and I am a little puzzled why you are seeing a problem. Try adding --debug to the command line and attaching the output. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
