Unfortunately, placing the link into the /boot does not work.
libguestfs-test-tool failes with the same message:

I looked for kernels in /boot and modules in /lib/modules.

If this is a Xen guest, and you only have Xen domU kernels

installed, try installing a fullvirt kernel (only for

febootstrap use, you shouldn't boot the Xen guest with it).

Does libguestfs-test-tool run after this?  (I don't have an ovirt-node
instance).  I would have thought that /lib/modules/... would need to be in place
also.
