Right .. as you guessed I downloaded the 32 bit ISO by accident :-(

It's a bit unfortunate that libosinfo isn't distinguishing between
different editions of the base OS (ie. Desktop vs Server vs
Enterprise).  This is something that libguestfs has long done, and the
information is used by virt-v2v (although v2v only uses it for
installed OSes, not for install images).  Once installed, Windows has
a field in the registry which distinguishes this case, and both RHEL
and SLES have similar distinctions.

Rich.
