The actual error is:

What operating system / distro / version are you trying to convert?
Looking a bit more closely, virt-v2v seems to have trouble seeing
anything at all on the source disk. So something may have gone badly
wrong. Tell me about what OS you expect the source (physical) machine
to have, and also something about what hardware it is using for its
disks (SCSI? RAID? etc).
