Welcome to guestfish, the libguestfs filesystem interactive shell for
editing virtual machine filesystems.
Type: 'help' for help on commands
'man' to read the manual
'quit' to quit the shell
Operating system: Microsoft Windows Server 2003

reading guestfish manual and see some msgs like
"tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors"
i am guessing that you (we) are using tar command to copy out.
the previous error is :
"tar: ......... : Cannot open: File name too long"
although not a big problem
It sounds like a big problem to me! Is this a standard Windows 2003
guest? Any unusual applications installed? Do you know which
filename is too large?
Rich.
