Why don't I just set up an i386 F16 conversion server and as soon as I know how to
capture the trace stuff we can try with it. For Fredy - I'll give it an IP Address of
...0.58.

Where do I export LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1? AFAIK, there isn't any
interactive shell where I can do this. I edit virt-v2v.conf, boot
the source physical machine from the CD, and click some mouse
buttons. That launches virt-p2v-server on the back end in the
conversion server. Is there a hook someplace in virt-p2v-server or
maybe virt-v2v.conf? And where does the output go?
Does it make sense to export that variable in an interactive shell
and then launch virt-p2v-server by hand? Searching for "TRACE" in
virt-p2v-server shows no occurrences. But maybe virt-p2v-server
runs an executable program that looks at that variable? Should I
still be using Fedora 14 for conversion server or is it better now
to try with Fedora 16?
Matt ^^
How should Greg capture trace output from the virt-p2v process?
Fedora 16's inspection code has changed quite a lot (libguestfs 1.8 vs
1.14). However functionally it should be just about the same.
