I am undoubtedly doing something wrong but cannot spot it.

Here is the xml file <https://bpaste.net/show/bd4df241ee37>

Error message:

% virt-v2v -i libvirtxml Win7.xml -o null

virt-v2v: error: inspection could not detect the source guest (or physical 
machine).

Assuming that you are running virt-v2v/virt-p2v on a source which is 
supported (and not, for example, a blank disk), then this should not 
happen.

No root device found in this operating system image.

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]

I'm stuck here.  I imagine the error is probably obvious but... not to me.
