Trying to run guestfish against a VMDK file with a space in its name: $ guestfish --ro -i "New Virtual Machine-flat.vmdk" open /dev/kvm: No such file or directory Could not initialize KVM, will disable KVM support New: No such file or directory (Also tried with New\ Virtual\ Machine-flat.vmdk). Once I rename the vmdk file to something without spaces it loads up fine. Bug? If so I will file a bz... Did I miss something in the docs on this? If so, flame retardant suit on and ready :) Thanks for the great utility. Ray
