Re: [Libguestfs] supermin-helper: ext2: parent directory not found: /mnt/bigdata/var: File not found by ext2_lookup

You could try to work around it by creating a file /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/00-dir containing the following lines: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- / /mnt /mnt/bigdata /mnt/bigdata/var ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (not including the dashes). If that doesn't work, take the supermin-helper command that is printed in the debug output, and try adding -v -v -v to the command. That should make it print plenty of debug. For example libguestfs-test-tool prints: libguestfs: command: run: /usr/bin/supermin-helper libguestfs: command: run: \ --verbose libguestfs: command: run: \ --copy-kernel libguestfs: command: run: \ -f ext2 libguestfs: command: run: \ --host-cpu x86_64 libguestfs: command: run: \ /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d libguestfs: command: run: \ --output-kernel /var/tmp/guestfs.pGpWYN/kernel libguestfs: command: run: \ --output-initrd /var/tmp/guestfs.pGpWYN/initrd libguestfs: command: run: \ --output-appliance /var/tmp/guestfs.pGpWYN/root I run: supermin-helper -v -v -v --verbose --copy-kernel -f ext2 --host-cpu x86_64 /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d /tmp/kernel --output-kernel /tmp/kernel --output-initrd /tmp/initrd --output-appliance /tmp/appliance Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Fedora Windows cross-compiler.
