Thanks a lot. I was trying to copy on local disk and guestfs_download () solved my problem. Now I am trying to modify source code of guestfs_download () to extract file in memory. Can you guide me what should i do to achieve that. Mohsin On Fri, Feb 10, 2017 at 2:13 AM, Richard W.M.

Currently guestfish has mount-vfs, and the libguestfs API has guestfs_mount_vfs(), but guestmount doesn't allow the user to specify a filesystem. This patch extends the --mount argument, so you can force an ext2 partition to mount as ext4: guestmount -a mydisk.img -m /dev/vda:/:defaults:ext4 mountpoint You could also use it to choose between ntfs and ntfs-3g, or between hfsplus and the

The existing mechanism was clunky, slow and used ~ 10 MB of local disk. Rich.

...indows Registry editing) is now directly supported through the API, making reading or editing the Windows Registry much more efficient. Several libguestfs APIs were reimplemented so they no longer have any limits on output. The reimplemented APIs are: guestfs_cat, guestfs_find, guestfs_read_file, guestfs_read_lines, guestfs_write, guestfs_write_append, guestfs_lstatlist, guestfs_lxattrlist, guestfs_readlinklist, guestfs_ls. virt tools guestfish touch 'win:c:\new_file' now works as expected. guestfish has a new --network option, which enables the user network i...

This started as a simple warning-elimination change. I'll get back to that series shortly ;-) It turned into a factorization and constification exercise during which I got a taste of ocaml. Thanks to Rich Jones for help with a few snippets in generator.ml. The overall result is that many previously-manually-maintained bits from daemon/*.c functions are now hoisted into the automatically-

Split up the huge generator/actions.ml into several smaller files. Rich.
