Hello,
I am trying to make a .iso to p2v some old windows servers, and I
installed a brand new FC22 server to build my images
I run
virt-p2v-make-kickstart fedora
livecd-creator p2v.ks
and I get the following error:

The .iso builds however the boot menu just returns to itself and I
never get to the p2v menu. What am I doing incorrectly to build the
ISO?
Yup, livecd-tools is broken junk.
I'm building ISOs you can download here:

The RHEL-7.2-preview/ directory contains the latest version, and
should work fine with virt-v2v from Fedora. These are built in a RHEL 7
VM, using the EPEL 7 version of livecd-tools which seems to work more
reliably.
I would caution you that you should always run livecd-tools in a
disposable VM, since it requires root and does all sorts of weird
stuff with host devices.
