Is libguestfs working for Windows guests?
Ccing libguestfs list. Thanks.
Yes, it works fine on Windows guests.
On RHEL 6 (*only*) you have to install the libguestfs-winsupport package from RHN.
On Fedora and other distros, Windows guests are supported out of the box:
$ virt-inspector -a /dev/vg_pin/WinXP | head <?xml version="1.0"?> <operatingsystems> <operatingsystem> <root>/dev/sda1</root> <name>windows</name> <arch>i386</arch> <distro>windows</distro> <product_name>Microsoft Windows XP</product_name> <major_version>5</major_version> <minor_version>1</minor_version>
Is there any particular problem you're having?
Rich.
H'm. Well, I'm doing this on Arch Linux, and I don't seem to have a virt-inspector command. I did set up an area for guestfs successfully in virt-manager, but was not able to figure out how to find it in Windows. The guest is Windows 7 64-bit, if that makes a difference. -- Jonathan E.
