...for the WinNT install (I'm no longer able to boot NT, though I have no problem starting the NT bootloader - after I choose Windows NT 4.0 and it starts to boot, I get a BSOD with reference to being unable to access the bootloader (which was just running...!?). So, I thought I might try and run rdisk.exe and create a repair disk, using Wine. The only problem is, I can't get rdisk.exe to access the floppy drive. Any suggestions?

Hello, I am doing tests to convert old rotting servers into a big shiny new Xen platform. I have been able to migrate a Windows 2003 server without a scratch. I am trying to do the same thing with Windows 2000 Server but things aren''t so great... I made an image from the disk that worked in a machine. Then I boot on this image using Xen. Windows 2000 starts to boot up then give me a

This change refactors guestfs___has_windows_systemroot to guestfs___get_windows_systemroot. The new function returns a dynamically allocated char * which must be freed. The new function is no less efficient than before, as it returns the result of guestfs___case_sensitive_path_silently, which is required anyway. The new code is slightly more efficient than before, as it re-uses the result of this

Hi all, I'd like to deploy a solution with dual-booting systems where CentOS 5.3 is already installed and WinXP will be installed to a separate disk. I found http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm?page=1 and it seems straight forward enough, although the description is for Ubuntu. The problem as I see it, is that the how-to differs from how

As described here previously: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-March/msg00129.html Here is the three part patch to reimplement virt-win-reg to support exporting and merging Windows Registry entries in the 'regedit' format.

Greetings, I encounter a problem that should be basic, but I can't get a clue. I have 8G USB disk formatted as FAT32. I run (syslinux -i -s -r -m H:) to make it bootable, and write syslinux.cfg according to the documents, but it will not boot some items. Syslinux is 6.03, bios files used. The whole syslinux.cfg file:

v10: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00245.html No actual change here, but I rebased and retested. Also this series now does not depend on any other patch series since everything else needed is upstream. Rich.

This depends on the patch series "[PATCH 00/27] Reimplement many daemon APIs in OCaml." (https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00098.html) v8 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00274.html v9: - I split up the mega-patch into a more reviewable series of smaller, incremental patches. There are some other changes vs v8, but

This fixes almost everything. Note that it adds an extra commit which fixes the whole utf8/iconv business. It's probably better to list what isn't fixed: (1) I didn't leave the osinfo code around because I'm still haven't looked too closely at virt-builder-repository. Can't we just fetch this code from the git history when we need it? (2) I didn't change the way

A very miscellaneous set of cleanups to how we handle the Windows registry in virt-v2v, firstboot, and inspection code. This should all be straightforward non-controversial refactoring. Some highlights: - Add a new mllib Registry module containing various utility functions that are currently scattered all around. - Only compute the software/system hive paths once during inspection, and
