FC6, xen installed, latest updates as of five minutes ago. ASUS 
P5LD2-R2.0 board, Intel 6600 CPU, 2GB RAM, 1.5TB disk.
PAE on, virtualization on. xend running, "xm list" works, shows one domain.


Install of any fully virtualized o/s fails. Sample output:
Would you like a fully virtualized guest (yes or no)?  This will allow 
you to run unmodified operating systems. yes
 How much RAM should be allocated (in megabytes)? 256
 Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no) no
 

Starting install...

libvir: Xen Daemon error : POST operation failed: (xend.err 'Error 
creating domain: Disk image does not exist: 
/home/davidsen/Virtual_Machines/OpenBSD-4.0a')

Tried from CD, same error. Tried from xenguest-install and virt-manager, 
same error.
VMware under Windows installs everything, but that's not where I need it 
installed.

Any thoughts?
