00:48 < agn> Hello libguestFS developers
00:48 < agn> a question: is there a list of supported guest OSes and filesystems for
'libguestfs' ?
00:49 < agn> I'm trying to use it on some non-linux guests (under KVM with qcow2
images), and it doesn't seem to work.
00:49 < agn> Just wanted to make sure I'm not spending time on something
that's officially not supported
[ As the topic says .. stay in the channel! ]
Libguestfs supports every filesystem that Linux supports (assuming it
is enabled either compiled in or as a module in your host kernel).
The only significant filesystem I'm aware of which is not supported is
Windows ReFS, only because no one has reverse engineered and
implemented a Linux driver for it yet.
Inspection supports a subset of all operating systems. We aim to
support all of them.
If you find an OS / filesystem which doesn't work, please file a bug.
Rich.
