[Users] virt-v2v: find: failed to restore initial working directory: Permission denied
Hello, I'd like to import an existing VM containing Windows XP to ovirt. However if I run virt-v2v I always get the following error: find: failed to restore initial working directory: Permission denied virt-v2v: WARNING: There is no virtio net driver available in the directory specified for this version of Windows. The guest will be configured with a rtl8139 network adapter, but no driver will be installed for it. If the rtl8139 driver is not already installed in the guest, you must install it manually after conversion. When I then import the VM into ovirt manager, I can start it and it seems to work. Can I ignore the 2 errors above? Thanks in advance. Kind regards, Patrick

patrick - yes. v2v tries to convert to virtio, and to do so needs the driver to install in the guest. you can do this manually after the conversion as well if you want
