Thanks Serge ... I didn't tried to make an iscsi install like appears here:

http://berrange.com/posts/2010/05/05/provisioning-kvm-virtual-machines-on-iscsi-the-hard-way-part-2-of-2/

I have tried to install it directly to iscsi san like a physical host. 
Using berrange procedure is like to use RDM in vmware ... Very interesting.

But one question, can I use virtio device instead of ide like in 
berrange's doc appears for iscsi disk??

Thanks.
