So hang on, you're running virt-p2v in a VM? While we do sometimes run virt-p2v in a VM do operational testing of P2V, this isn't the way to convert a physical machine. You have to burn the ISO to a CD and boot the physical machine using it. (Alternatives exist: use livecd-iso-to-pxeboot; or possibly your blade hardware will let you use the ISO directly as a virtual CD-ROM) Anyway, running virt-p2v in a VM isn't going to work ...
