Hi. Re freenode, normally not although I probably should drop in every 
so often.

If you can't install the RPM, you'll need to put the virt-install script 
in /usr/sbin as you did, and the rest of the python (everything under 
the virtinst/ subdirectory) in your python library directory. For Fedora 
that's generally /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/<package-name>... your 
distro may vary of course. Most important thing is to replace the 
existing virtinst code on your machine with the new stuff.
