With these, I was able to compile guestfish. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.

1/8 generator: Rearrange argt logically (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). 2/8 generator: Optional arguments, add-drive-opts (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851). 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).

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

These patches are a distillation of the good patches from the previous large / for-discussion-only error handling patch. See: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-November/msg00298.html Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-df lists disk usage of guests without needing to install any software inside the virtual machine.

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. About hivex: http://libguestfs.org/hivex.3.html About the Windows Registry: Forget it - there are no reliable references. However the Wikipedia page explains some of the top level concepts:

NOTE: This is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL and can eat babies ... Modify the guest libvirt XML to add the virtio-serial channel: <channel type='unix'> <source mode='bind' path='/tmp/socket'/> <target type='virtio' name='org.libguestfs.channel.0'/> </channel> In the guest, compile guestfsd and run it like this: sudo

This series of patches, now up to 13 parts, contains lots of bug fixes and groundwork required before we add write support to the hivex library. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com Fedora now supports 80 OCaml packages (the OPEN alternative to F#)

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 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. Supports shell scripting, bindings from many languages.

This patch series adds support for some simple operations on hive files, and I've now tested and verified that those operations work correctly. All except for the last patch (12/12) are ready to be committed. The last patch is WIP.

This set adds support for recursively deleting a node and everything under it (ie. all subkeys, values, SKs etc). I've checked this works, both using my own reverse-engineering tools and using Windows 7 regedit. Example: $ hivexsh -w <<EOF load software cd \Microsoft del commit EOF Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones New in Fedora

As outlined here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2009-November/msg00171.html These patches fix some of the simpler things. Some of the things (the missing headers) are genuine bugs. Note in order to cross-compile at all you have to comment out the section in the daemon/configure.ac where it detects custom format specifiers. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat

Patches 1-6 are general code quality improvements. Note that Guido previously asked us for the ability to build libguestfs without building the appliance. Patches 7-10 are specific to Mac OS X, but shouldn't break the build for existing platforms.

In 1.11.1 / git, I have made some changes to the way that you run guestfish, guestmount and the virt tools from the build directory without installing. Firstly you can't just run ./fish/guestfish or ./fuse/guestmount any more and have those programs magically set LIBGUESTFS_PATH. The automagic code was always error-prone and I have removed it. Secondly, all of the run-*-local scripts have

This is part 1 (updated) and part 2 of the three part patch set to provide tools for merging Windows Registry entries in the 'regedit' textual format. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=575738 Using the low-level hivexregedit tool I was able to merge the registry entries described in the following article into an existing 'system' registry hive file:

OK let's restart this whole architecture thing. Firstly two patches which pass the '-z' parameter to 'file' so it looks inside compressed files. (Thanks to Matt for finding this not-so-obscure option). This means the 'zfile' command is now obsolete.
