Matt's actually off today, but I'm sure he'll answer in more detail tomorrow. However the reason for getting this error is that your guest isn't one of those supported by virt-v2v (which is roughly: RHEL 3/4/5/6 and clones, Windows XP and above, Fedora). If virt-v2v doesn't understand the guest, it tries only a very minimal and conservative form of conversion. It's not clear what this PXE5-test guest is. You can find out by using virt-inspector (on RHEL 6, replace 'virt-inspector' with 'virt-inspector2'): virt-inspector -a /path/to/PXE5-test.img For examples see: http://libguestfs.org/virt-inspector.1.html#xml_format Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.
