Description Richard W.M. Jones 2011-05-31 11:59:11 UTC 
Description of problem:

virt-inspector cannot detect ReactOS.  Amongst the differences
are that the windows %systemroot% is c:\reactos.

There's also a bigger problem in that ReactOS hives cannot
be read by hivex, for which I'll file a separate bug.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

libguestfs 1.11.8

How reproducible:

Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. virt-inspector /path/to/ReactOS.img
2.
3.
  
Actual results:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<operatingsystems/>


If I change the code so that /reactos can be a systemroot
then I run into a separate hivex bug:

libguestfs: error: hivex: cannot locate HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion: Bad address
