What error is reported?
Can you try with bare kvm (no virt-manager)? I have Vista running on
20GB virtual disks (indeed, I don't think it will install on 4GB disks).

signature is too narrow to contain.

I could, but actually wasn't able to find a good how to (newby here).
I just found instructions to build up a ubuntu disk with build-ubuntu-
something command.
