These two previously posted. 3/8 fish: Specify format of disks (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). Updates to guestfish to add the --format option and to make -d copy the format from libvirt. 4/8 fuse: Specify format of disks (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851).

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619334 This is a slightly unsatisfactory patch which allows coredumps to be captured when they occur inside the appliance. You can capture coredumps by doing: export LIBGUESTFS_COREDUMP=/sysroot/core.%t.%p.%e or equivalently: g.set_coredump ("/sysroot/core.%t.%p.%e") or variations thereof, see the manual page. When a coredump occurs,

This is a set of bugfixes and enhancements to allow virt-resize to really expand Linux and Windows guests. Previously there were lots of bugs. This version has been tested on a variety of guests successfully. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

These patches are a distillation of the good patches from the previous large / for-discussion-only error handling patch.

This patch series adds support for outputing an ext2-based appliance from febootstrap-supermin-helper. The usage is very simple, you just add '-f ext2' flag and the name of the appliance file that you want to write to. The implementation uses libext2fs, which is a very low level way to create ext2 filesystems from scratch. We'd like to use libguestfs, but that's an obvious

This series of patches aim to make adding disks from libvirt domains easy through the core API. These two new APIs allow you to add the disks from a libvirt domain. The higher level add-domain API takes the name of the libvirt domain as a string and connects to libvirt itself. The lower level add-libvirt-dom API relies on the program to connect to libvirt and pass the virDomainPtr into the API

This series of patches prepares the way for a later series which will add write support for Windows Registry 'hive' files to our 'hivex' mini library.

OK let's restart this whole architecture thing. Firstly two patches which pass the '-z' parameter to 'file' so it looks inside compressed files.
