The virt-image tool is explicitly rejecting any disk images which are not
in the raw or iso format. Some patches I did to the Fedora live CD tools
allow creation of appliances & virt-image XML using any disk format 
supported by qemu-img:

If I loosen the virt-image disk format checks to allow qcow, qcow2, and vmdk
it all works fine, so I've comitted this change
