Hi all,

I had a similar problem. I'm using the RPM for CentOS at dreyou.org.

I found that SELinux denies access to the ISO on NFS to libvirt/qemu.
Using audit2allow, I found that there is a boolean for that.

Running this command on the nodes fixed it for me:
    setsebool virt_use_nfs 1

Greetings.
