This is caused by a bug in the way that supermin created symlinks which is not compatible with the new kernel: 291 l bzfgrep 120777 6 0:0 -> \x1c\v You need to upgrade to the new supermin which fixes this.

Hello all, I'm able to add (>add-ro image) a newly created image (created with vmbuilder) using the guestfish shell, but unable to run it. I appear to be getting kernel panics when doing so. In trying to debug the issue, I noticed that libguestfs-test-tool also fails with a kernel panic due to sync errors. I had previously suspected an issue with the kernel file permissions but this was resolved by allowing read access. I've attached output from both running the guestfish shell, and libguestfs-test-tool. I am running Ubuntu Xenial (16.04), and guestfish 1.32.2 installed via apt. Thanks. Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide that will assist.
