Fajar, thanks for your suggestions. 

The files do exist.

[root@vmhost01 ~]# ls /vm/ts05/ts05.dsk
/vm/ts05/ts05.dsk
[root@vmhost01 ~]# ls /download/Win2003x64/disc1.iso
/download/Win2003x64/disc1.iso
[root@vmhost01 ~]#

Actually, ts05.dsk did not exist before issuing the virt-install command. It 
was created by the -s flag.

udevd is running

[root@vmhost01 ~]# ps ax|grep udevd|grep -v grep
  793 ?        S<s    0:00 /sbin/udevd -d

I have a hunch that you're right about it being an X display problem, but I 
don't know what the problem could be. I'm running it on a local X display, not 
on a remote machine.

Do you have any other thoughts?

I'd start with verifying that /vm/ts05/ts05.dsk and 
/download/Win2003x64/disk1.iso actually exists. Next, verify that udevd is 
istill running.

Other than that, the most common problem is probably X display problem. Are you 
running it on a remote host or local X display?

Regards,

Fajar
