Hello- I've recently upgraded from OEL 6.4 to OEL 6.8. Infiniband Hardware installed on the server prevents me from upgrading the OS version any higher. Kernel Version: Oracle Linux Server Red Hat Compatible Kernel (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64) Since the upgrade, there have been problems with libguestfs-tools hanging, then timing out.

I had a look at how the Tiny Core Linux ISO is arranged. It loads the main operating system root partition as a single large initramfs, with optional modules loaded

v1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-March/thread.html#00157 Not running the 'hwclock' command reduces boot times considerably. However I'm not sure if it is safe. See the question I posted on qemu-devel: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/402194 At the moment, about 50% of the time is consumed by SeaBIOS. Of this, about ⅓rd is SGABIOS

Greetings, I am suffering of several weird errors which show randomly and make me suspect some concurrency issue. Libguestfs version is 1.28.1, linux kernel 3.16, libvirt 1.2.9 and qemu 2.1. What I'm trying to do is comparing the disk state at two different point of a guest execution. Disk snapshots are taken through libvirt in different moments (I am aware of caching issue), from such

Hi, I am trying to get libguestfs-test-tool working on ubuntu. The first problem I had was that HiveX won't compile on ubuntu to due to some missing symbols (rpl-getopt, I see this has already been reported). Second problem is that if HiveX is not available, guestfish doesn't link because code refers to symbols which aren't compiled into libguestfs (I was able to work around this by
