I just tried booting from the F17 installer with each of these cases: using an ide disk, using no disk, using e1000 nic, rtl8139 nic, no nic. I've also tried with both preallocated and thin provisioned disks. All the same: the F17 install dvd hangs at boot.

The same F17 dvd image, when accessed from the same nfs share via virt-manager on my F17 notebook, works as expected. The F16 dvd image boots at least, as does the boot.fedoraproject.org image, though Fedora systems installed with either of those do not boot. Maybe I'll try building a new vdsm to test.
