This works too. Use the guestfs_set_attach_method call to connect to the daemon once libvirt has booted the appliance (how you boot the appliance via libvirt is of course up to you): http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#attaching_to_running_daemons http://libguestfs.org/guestfs.3.html#guestfs_set_attach_method Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-df lists disk usage of guests without needing to install any software inside the virtual machine.
