I am following instructions on the Image Creation wiki to create my own raw or 
vmdk image and boot it in qemu or vmware.
I have fresh Fedora Core 12 in a VM (installed today) with all the required 
packages installed today as well.

I pulled in the .ks file for netbook atom image and modified the Base and Core 
to Meego Base and Meego Core
When I invoke mic-image-creator, it gets all the packages and builds the images.
At the very end, it throws this error:

close failed in file object destructor:
Error in sys.excepthook:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/abrt_exception_handler.py", line 243, 
in <lambda>
    handleMyException((etype, value, tb))
TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable

Original exception was:
IOError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

I upgraded my Python but this issue is not going away. Just the most recent 
trace source changed in the error.

The images are built, however. But when I try to boot using those images, meego 
does not come up. The screen (virtual) turns light gray and stays like that 
forever.

If I build a livecd image, that does boot fine in vmware VM that I create for 
it (although if I choose to install, that does not work either).

I would like to do either of two things:
-> Be able to install meego (what format should I use if I want to do this?)
-> Be able to boot meego in a VM using raw/vmdk/other virtual disk formats

Any ideas what might be going wrong? Has anyone else seen this issue?

Thanks,
Adhyas
