As Pino says, you need a newer version of libguestfs. Version 1.26 should be out by the end of the month and it includes this API. You can run 'qemu-img create' manually to create disk images. g.disk_create (output, "raw", 512*1024*1024) is roughly the equivalent of running: qemu-img create -f raw $output 512M BTW the online manual pages always document the latest version, and so may use newer APIs than you have available on your machine. Your distro should be packaging the manual pages, and if you read those it will have documentation that relates to the version you have installed.
