Nice, but when i try
I created this image with virt-install, this runs fine on Xen.

if i try

[root at centos-test ~]# file /vm/toyoto.img
/vm/toyoto.img: data

guestfish -a /vm/toyoto.img

><fs> run
*Could not open '/dev/kqemu' - QEMU acceleration layer not activated: No
such file or directory*
><fs> list-partitions
><fs>

List partitions displays nothing!
How to sort this issue?
