I have tried it after fstab entry but in vain. An other problem started with it "low storage space". I dont know where does virt-manager keep those images and on which device it has mount the vm img. how can i free that storage space? that is in use of all those images i tried to install and fails to create.

Regards
Fasiha Ashraf

Maybe you don't have xenfs mounted so virt* stuff can't figure out the
hypervisor info?

Do you have /proc/xen ?

Do you have this line in /etc/fstab:
none            /proc/xen       xenfs   defaults        0       0

Also, please update to 'xen/master' branch, and you'll get 2.6.31.4
based pv_ops dom0 kernel.

2.6.30-rc6 you're running is not supported, and a lot of bugs has been
fixed after that version.
