If you are using ESX/i remember that this hypervisor uses 2 kinds of disk type (in 4.0.x). VMDK monolithic flat and VMDK monolithic sparse. This disks types are directly supported from kvm.
Monolithic flat is compounded for 2 files. * disk.vmdk is a text file with disk info * disk-flat.vmdk is a raw disk You can load disk-flat.vmdk directly in kvm.
