Hello Jan,

prepare the image for nebula in KVM (e.g. using virt-manager).

You need the Windows-ISO and the virtio-Drivers (e.g. downloadable from the Fedora project), if 
you are not using IDE disks (hda...).
-> http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/WindowsGuestDrivers/Download_Drivers

The way is comparable to the one described here (http://bderzhavets.wordpress.com/2011/01/20/virtio-install-windows-7-kvm-x64x86-on-ubuntu-10-04-1-server-via-dnjl-ppa/)
for Windows 7.

The key point is to load the drivers before installation (from e.g. the virtual floppy or a second
cdrom image).
After the drivers are loaded, the virtion disk is recognized and you can start the installation.

Best,
  Michael
