It looks to me that the windows 2008 image I am attempting to convert is not being detected as windows but is being updated as a Linux system. When PXE booted the server with the p2v image I ended up with this error: Failed to launch guestfs appliance. Try running again with LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 for more information The system image transferred and I was able to create an XML file to boot it under

Hi, I am using libguestfs 1.12.0 and I am facing a problem with it . I am using guestfs python bindings to "launch" a vdi image file . It works fine except immediately after a VM is stopped(which uses the same vdi file) i.e in normal conditions launch command works but when a vm (which uses the same vdi file) is started - stopped , a call to "launch" command hangs the

Hello all, I 've compiled libguestfs 1.16.5 on arch linux and the tests fail. This is the output I get when I run libguestfs-test-tool: LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 TMPDIR=(not set) libguestfs: new guestfs handle 0xcf4310 library version: 1.16.5 guestfs_get_append: (null) guestfs_get_attach_method: appliance guestfs_get_autosync: 1 guestfs_get_direct: 0 guestfs_get_memsize: 500 guestfs_get_network: 0

Why does the toplevel Makefile process appliance/, and creates supermin.d during make install, whith configure --disable-appliance? I have to double check what actually happens, it seems it causes startup failures if the resulting binary packages are started on a host that happens to have supermin installed. Olaf

Hi All, I am trying to run guestfish inside an Ubuntu instance running in VirtualBox. I'm running into problems, and my first question, is this setup even possible?

Move the handling of the SUPERMIN_* envvars, and the kernel copy/symlink out of find_kernel to build_kernel: this way find_kernel does only the search. Also, the modules path search is done in by find_kernel as well. This is mostly code motion, with no behaviour changes. --- src/kernel.ml | 89 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------ 1 file changed, 44 insertions(+), 45

Hi Rich But there is no src/kernel.ml file on my ubuntu powerpc to which the above patch is reffering. I have installed supermin as supermin_5.1.8-2_powerpc.deb debian package.
