Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2017-01-16 07:06:10 UTC 
I should say that this bug was originally reported on IRC by
Nadav Goldin from Red Hat.
Comment 3 Pino Toscano 2017-01-16 09:30:55 UTC 
It looks like this version has just a minimal / partition with grub1 (in /boot), kernel, and initrd -- all the system is within the initrd.
Comment 4 Nadav Goldin 2017-06-20 08:43:18 UTC 
I think this can be closed, the official CirrOS 0.3.5 works:

Back then I used a not officially released image, not sure if it was a bug in libguestfs or a broken image, either way, thanks!
