Cool, thanks.

Seems to be broken on my rawhide install.  Could be a problem
with the fact that I'm still running the f10 kernel, since the
rawhide initrd doesn't presently work on my machines.

So I moved the virt-image xml and the raw disk image to an f10
machine where I was able to launch the appliance.

However at this point it fails to boot.  I can see the problem by
lomounting the partition on the host... the grub.conf specifies
an initrd, but it's not available:

$ cat /mnt/thincrust/boot/grub/grub.conf 
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title thincrust (2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64 ro root=/dev/sda1 acpi=force
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64.img

$ ls -1 /mnt/thincrust/boot
System.map-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64

Thanks,
