I am seeing the following failure when trying to create a vm guests on an 
I386 system.
I have seen this on the 8/17 and 8/18 trees. It was working on the 8/16 
tree.
The kernel I am running is 2.6.17-1.2571.fc6xen

Starting install...
libvir: error : operation virDomainCreateLinux forbidden for read only 
access
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py", line 476, in ?
    main()
  File "/usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py", line 467, in main
    start_paravirt_install(name, ram, disk, mac, uuid, bridge, src, 
options.extra)
  File "/usr/sbin/xenguest-install.py", line 344, in 
start_paravirt_install
    dom = conn.createLinux(cfgxml, 0)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 249, in 
createLinux
    if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateLinux() failed')
libvirt.libvirtError: virDomainCreateLinux() failed


Did this latest change in Libvert cause this error?
Is this a known error and should I open a bugzilla.
