Does the guest contain any of /etc/conf.modules, /etc/modules.conf,
/etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/? What distribution of Linux is
the guest?
Ignore that question. I can see from the output that it's "Red Hat
Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)", and that the problem is
caused by incorrect mounting of /boot as /.
I'm struggling to find the precise patch right now, but I'm convinced
we've fixed this bug. It could have been in either libguestfs or
virt-v2v. My memory is failing me. Can you please try again using either
the recently released RHEL 6.2, or F16?
Thanks,
Matt
