Ubuntu installs are easy I dont need X, but fedora is a pain I'm using virt-install but I need X installed, we do not install X on our servers at all, and will rather not to. So can I do this remotely from my linux desktop with X? if so do I need to mount a partition on both the host and my desktop computer? I have try to do a remote install but keeps complaining about the storage place.. PS: any way to do a fedora12 install with out a stupid GUI? Thanks Chris F.
