kvm virtualization in RHEL 5.4 Beta, howto

[Le Wen]

Hi there,

     I don't know what to do in RHEL5.4, but in RHEL5.3, using

      qemu-img create -f qcow /vm/vdisk.img 20G 

     to create the virtual disk

    qemu-kvm -hda /vm/vdisk.img -cdrom /vm/iso/w2k3.iso -boot d  -m 1024

      to create the virtual machine,

      and finally, using
 
    qemu-kvm /vm/vdisk.img -m 1024
 
     to boot the installed vm.

Hi Thomas,
thanks for your answer.

When I run virt-manager (as I do with xen) and try to use kvm I dont see
this option anywhere.

When I try to add a connection the hypervisors avaliable are xen and qemu
(like with previous version of RH)

How I build the kvm guest (sorry if this is a silly question, but I don´t
see how to make it)

Thanks,

ESG
