[libvirt] kvm-qemu emulator problem

[Pankaj Rawat]

Sorry for that 
I defined it now 
When I run the command 

[root at localhost qemu]# virsh start guestfvd
error: Failed to start domain guestfvd
error: internal error unknown disk format 'fvd' for
/var/lib/libvirt/images/guestfvd

I know this error sounds like the fvd is not installed but I
havecompiled it and maked it myself

Qemu-img command list the format fvd along with qed ,qcow2

The binary qemu-system-x86-64 isalso maked as a result of make install

What to do now ???

You forgot to define it first ;-) You have to define it using "virsh
define guestfvd.xml" first and then start :-) The name of what guest to
start have to be the same as the one in "//domain/name" node of xPath
query applied to the XML file.
