    I've been working on getting a Windows Server 2008 (Standard) KVM in my linux box running Ubuntu Server 12.04. I've got virt-install and virt-manager installed, got the install up and running via

    virt-install --connect qemu:///system -n winsvr2008 -r 1024 --vcpus=1 --disk path=/home/pwnd/vm/2008.img,size=30 -c /home/pwnd/en_windows_server_2008_with_sp2_x86_dvd_342333.iso --graphics vnc,listen=192.168.1.127 --noautoconsole --os-type=windows --os-variant=win2k8 --network=bridge:virbr0 --hvm -v

    and

    virsh vncdisplay winsvr2008

    I can connect and view as well as I can get to the install screen, but once I click Install, it just hangs indefinitely on Please Wait...

    Ideas?

    You might get some help in Ubuntu forums. I would suggest you to post this question over there.

    Remote Desktop Connects but "freezes"... (well not quite)

    Thanks
