It's a kernel message and shouldn't stop it from booting, but if it does try adding edd=off on the kernel command

EDD is an ancient BIOS standard that's not relevant today.

Hello, I am trying to convert a physical server (10 year old hardware with PCI LSI Loging / Symbios LSI MegaRAID controller and SCSI drives, RAID 5 Configuration) into a Virtual Machine in oVirt (oVirt Version 4.1.8). Host to be converted has Fedora 5 OS. I have downloaded the virt-p2v.iso (Cent OS 7.3). I have prepared the conversion server, set it up as a VM in oVirt environment. I am able

To avoid libvirt problems, do: export LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct Why don't you use the ISO? Burn it onto a CD and boot it. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat

On Debian systems, usually daemons are run automatically after their installations; since we are upgrading the template, and installing packages such as openssh, network-manager, etc, this may cause few daemon to stay running during the virt-builder execution, causing it to fail when shutting down (since e.g. /sysroot/dev would be in use). As workaround, use a temporary policy-rc.d policy layer

Hi, this small series fixes the generation of Debian-based images using virt-p2v-make-disk. With this series, the image can boot fine, X is started, and the p2v interface appears. I haven't tried an actual conversion, but I don't think there are Debian-specific problems preventing that. Thanks, Pino Toscano (4): p2v: fix Gtk dependencies on Debian p2v: remove

From: Alban Lecorps <alban.lecorps at ubisoft.com> The "-oo" option will be useful primarily for the openstack output mode (currently disabled, from commit b74c126629e3, "Ignore 'openstack' driver", 2020-03-16). Use a ConfigStringList knob for "-oo", and for each OPTION=VALUE element in that list, create a separate "-oo OPTION=VALUE" option.

10:16 < netman1> Hi All. First timer. Running "sudo virt-p2v-make-disk -o image.dd debian-8" where the image is a zeroed out disk file of 16GB. Let is run for over 12 hours, still nothing.

When virtualizing a physical machine ("P2V"), the conversion step is done by virt-v2v, but there is a small GUI / front end component called virt-p2v which has to run on the source physical machine in a special environment. http://libguestfs.org/virt-p2v.1.html#network-setup Because the nature of the problem is that we want to virtualize old machines, this means virt-p2v sometimes
