Can I ask that you retry the failed conversion when the fix
for bug 1159258 is ready? This guest lacks <features/> in its
libvirt XML, and that might affect booting somehow.

virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.7.el7.x86_64 is available in brew. Could you
try the conversion with this?
Hi rjones,
Tried with new build:
virt-v2v-1.28.1-1.7.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.28.1-1.7.el7.x86_64
steps:
1. Convert a win7-x86_64 guest from esx server:
# virt-v2v -ic vpx://root.111.25/tzheng-demo/10.66.106.63/?no_verify=1 test-win7-x86_64
[ 0.0] Opening the source -i libvirt -ic vpx://root.111.25/tzheng-demo/10.66.106.63/?no_verify=1 test-win7-x86_64
Enter root's password for 10.66.111.25:
Enter host password for user 'root':

Domain test-win7-x86_64 defined from /tmp/v2vlibvirt2ec2d5.xml
[ 496.0] Finishing off
Result: Conversion finished successfully and guest can boot up successfully.
2. Same with guest: win2008r2_64.

So .. probably .. this has the same root cause as bug 1159258.
Since it has now been fixed, I'm going to mark it as duplicate.
