This particular test was a linux Ubuntu server built
this weekend via virt-manager. The goal is to be able
to build a disk with the tools I have in linux and
ship it to someone who is running a current licensed
ESX version.

I had the impression that libvirt could handle a vmdk
from a VMware server; but can it go the other way?
