Hi,
I know btrfs complicates filesystem lists due to the use of subvolumes.
However, I just noticed that the root partition itself ends up being listed
twice with list-filesystems, inspect-os, inspect-get-roots, etc... I'm seeing
this in version 1.26, but haven't found anything directly resolv
In some cases (specifically, SUSE grub2 environments) it is possible to
fail to update the block entries in device.map. In turn, this causes an
invalid path to be returned in perl-Bootloader code, which causes the
conversion to fail with the following message:

During a Windows conversion, _prepare_virtio_drivers aborts the conversion

Although not fatal, _unconfigure_xenpv should report a warning and return

This patch has only slight modifications since originally posted as:

Although these messages are not always valuable, these changes do show

As a followup to the discussion on verbose logging for virt-v2v, this patch
adds basic verbose messages in the main virt-v2v code. As Matt pointed out,
the usefulness of these messages is limited as the time spent outside of data
copying is trivial. However, when converting smaller guests, these me

The iface:ide parameter (used in the libguestfs add_drive call) does not work
