I'm using Fedora Virtual Manager to create a full virtualization Windows XP domU and i got this error message

Error create domain : Disk image does not exist (home/user/xen/winxp.dsk)

It's SElinux causing this issue. By default SElinux would allow xend to read/write images from any location in filesystem except /var/lib/xen/images. Your solutions are,

- Put the image at /var/lib/xen/images
- Add /home to the SElinux policies so that SElinux would allow xend to read files from /home
- Or turn off Selinux. setenforce 0

Need help on this....
