I will go with the suspicion that this is because the kernel used on the live CD is too old. It needs updating anyway -- the live CD is based on Fedora 8 -- so I will make a new build available shortly. Sorry, comment 1 is wrong. The 0.9.9 live CD is in fact based on Fedora 10. However I will build a virt-p2v CD based on Fedora 11 since it's just been released. There is a new version of virt-p2v and virt-v2v: http://libguestfs.org/virt-v2v/ |
Created attachment 347007 [details] Output from virt-p2v.log and dmesg Description of problem: Running virt-p2v 0.9.9 on a i386 200 GB PATA HDD without LVM results in error abort: Command failed: mount '/dev/mapper/snapsda9' /mnt/root The root filesystem resides on hda9 (sda9). Other entries in /dev/mapper/ seem to be correct. Interesting messages from virt-p2v.log: device-mapper: table: device 253:7 too small for target device-mapper: table: 253:8: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Allways (on this machine) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot virt-p2v CD 2. Specify network parameters 3. Specify disk parameters Actual results: virt-p2v aborts Expected results: virt-p2v starts transfering image and parameter file Additional info:
