winxp-network-driver
I have replicated this with a libvirt->libvirt conversion. The reason is that virtio-win doesn't contain a netkvm driver for Windows XP. A closer inspection also reveals there is no netkvm driver for Windows 7 32bit and 64bit, and that there are only 32bit drivers for Windows XP. I've pushed a fix for this upstream. verify this bug in rhel6: virt-v2v-0.7.1-3.el6.x86_64 libguestfs-1.7.17-12.el6.x86_64 libguestfs-*-1.7.17-12.el6.x86_64 libvirt-0.8.7-6.el6.x86_64 febootstrap-2.11-6.el6.x86_64 hivex-1.2.4-3.el6.x86_64 libguestfs-winsupport-1.0-5.el6.x86_64 augeas-libs-0.7.2-4.el6.x86_64 1)#virt-v2v -ic xen+ssh://10.66.72.123 -op sdb1 -b breth0 winxp-32bit winxp-32bit.img: 100% [===========================================================================================================================]D 0h03m28s virt-v2v: WARNING: There is no virtio net driver available in the directory specified for this version of Windows. The guest will be configured with a rtl8139 network adapter, but no driver will be installed for it. If the rtl8139 driver is not already installed in the guest, you must install it manually after conversion. virt-v2v: winxp-32bit configured with virtio storage only. 2) check the guest network driver is RTL8139 and network is fine storage driver is virtio
