OK, the entire log is at the end of the email.

The logs have the following line, I presume it means that there was 
nothing on the kernel command line...
[    0.000000] Kernel command line:
I also tried "cat /proc/cmdline" from the emergency shell and it had 
nothing.
I have no idea what should be here. I was under the impression that this 
sort of thing should be taken care of by either the virt-install 
program, or the Fedora18 DVD image that I was pointing it to.

Thank you
