Alon,

    I appreciate your quick responses. Thank you.

    So far I have been using wiki page -  
http://www.ovirt.org/Building_oVirt_engine
    and for eclipse - http://www.ovirt.org/Building_oVirt_Engine/IDE
    for engine development and its worked well, except I never  
actually installed OS on my VMs. This is the first time doing it and  
its failing.

    Are you suggesting that I stop using above wiki and instead use  
otopi [1][2]?

    My main struggle right now is to add another fedora machine as  
host and create VMs and run those VMs. There are various wikis/web  
pages that are out there to get one up and running with VDSM, but its  
always been touch and go. Can you suggest one that works for F18 host?

Thanks
Sharad Mishra
