[Libguestfs] Virtio-win RPM?

[Greg Scott]

Of course the guest has those directories.  It's a Windows system.  I tried the link to that bug but it just times out.  What's the workaround?

It's a bug in libguestfs:

http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=blob;f=src/inspect_fs_windows.c;h=270b7616f5f5ae457c1db7926047660bf8fc0151;hb=HEAD#l147

Does this guest have one of these directories:

 \windows
 \winnt
 \win32
 \win

and that directory:

    ...\system32
    ...\system32\config
    ...\system32\cmd.exe

?

You could also try running virt-inspector on the guest
('virt-inspector2' on RHEL 6).

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.  Tiny program with many
powerful monitoring features, net stats, disk stats, logging, etc.
