That's  good question. I used the default settings in Virtmanager and
created all the easy way, so I suppose that they are all raw.

Looking at the xml files in /etc/libvirt/qemu, both the problem FC14 and
the working FC13 vms have no type listed in the driver spec.

The Winxp and a new FC14 instance (created last night and working fine)
have a type listed as 'raw'.

I don't know where else to look for the type.

I just updated the host to Centos 5.6 on the weekend, and I restarted
the machine then, and therefore, restarted the vms as well, and all
three of the vms fired up. It was only when I updated the FC14 vm that I
ran into the problem.
