Anyway the problem is that this kernel: [ 0.000000] Linux version 3.13.9-pax (carinhas@soluciones) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu 4.8.2-19ubuntu1) ) #3 SMP Mon May 5 13:07:05 CDT 2014 (Ubuntu 3.13.0-24.46-generic 3.13.9) doesn't have any virtio drivers. If you self-compiled it, then you'll need to recompile it with all virtio drivers enabled. Otherwise you can point libguestfs to another kernel by setting the SUPERMIN_KERNEL and/or SUPERMIN_MODULES environment variables, see: http://libguestfs.org/supermin.1.html#ENVIRONMENT-VARIABLES NOTE that between tests you will need to: rm -rf /vm/tmp/.guestfs-0
Closing because the problem was the kernel didn't have virtio drivers, see comment 4.
This problem is resolved. The custom kernel was at fault.. Thanks..
