Linglu,

Could you please attach the output of:

virt-inspector --perl /path/to/disk/image

Could you please run this against the guest *before* conversion.

Thanks,

Matt

This:

Use of uninitialized value in string eq at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/Sys/VirtV2V/GuestOS/RedHat.pm line 406.

Suggests that there were no configs in the virt-inspector output. This isn't right, as the attached grub.conf shows configurations which should have been picked up.

I've pushed a patch upstream which moves the default kernel name setting out of the configs loop. This fix is likely to make this particular issue go away, however the underlying cause still needs to be investigated.

Comment 5 Matthew Booth 2010-05-06 09:51:52 UTC
And indeed, configs is empty in the virt-inspector output. Could you please attach:

1. The version of augeas-libs installed on the conversion host
2. The contents of grub.conf in the guest prior to conversion

Thanks,

Matt

Comment 8 Matthew Booth 2010-05-07 15:59:29 UTC
Thanks, Linglu.

This is a problem with the augeas lens: it doesn't like the commented out initrd.

Comment 9 Matthew Booth 2010-05-10 15:44:01 UTC
Could you please update augeas-libs on the conversion box to augeas-libs-0.7.1-1.el5.2?

After updating to augeas-libs-0.7.1-1.el5.2. RHEL39 with PAE kernel can be converted.

I test this bug in version virt-v2v-0.6.1-2.el5, now RHEL39 with PAE kernel can be
converted successful.
