Hi Richard,

I wanted to know how to set LIBGUESTFS_APPEND="noapic" through /etc/libguestfs-tools.conf but I'm not sure what the format of the file should be.

Could you give me the exact line I should add which will work?

Thanks and in advance, and thanks for your great work with libguestfs!

It's not possible to set this in /etc/libguestfs-tools.conf. You have to set LIBGUESTFS_APPEND="noapic" as an environment variable, eg. by doing: export LIBGUESTFS_APPEND="noapic" or putting this same command into /etc/profile.d/local.sh.
