Is this how I would get to the kernel cmd line of the virt-p2v iso?
Add edd=off to the first(!) kernel line inside the VM in /boot/grub/grub.conf
The easiest thing is just to interrupt grub at boot (hit "Esc"), then
edit the kernel command line there. This is a one-off change that you
have to do each time you boot P2V.
If you are making virt-p2v disks/ISOs then how to change this
permanently depends on what method you're using. It may be better to
look at the source code of the virt-p2v-make* scripts in the virt-p2v
git repository.

Does adding edd=off actually help? Does virt-p2v hang at boot?
I wasn't clear on exactly what was happening.
