I'm highly doubtful this problem is specific to virt-v2v.  virt-v2v
might trigger it in some circumstances, but it seems to be a broader
problem that could affect any libguestfs instance running in L2, or
indeed any *VM*.

Hi,

We all agree that it's not specific to virt-v2v.

I managed to reproduce the same double fault on "normal" L2 boot -
without
libguestfs interference.
And as Paolo wrote already, he will take a look at it.

Thanks,
Rom

I haven't done any v2v conversions in L2 (or at any other level).


PS: Sorry, I didn't notice my previous 2 emails didn't go to the list,
that wasn't intended. Rich, you bounce them here, if you prefer (instead
of me clumsily forwarding them).
