Now, the problem comes with migrating windows vmachines. I read here at 3.3.1.2 : https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualiza...
that I had to install three things, more or less optional : - virtio-win (this one seems mandatory, as I'm getting the error : virt-v2v: blah blah blah missing : /usr/share/virtio-win/drivers/i386/WinXP or whatever windows OS - I tried many) - libguestfs-winsupport (I don't know whether it is mandatory, as I'm hitting the bug above.It seems important as it seems related to the file system, so quite useful) - Guest Tools ISO (this one seems to be similar to VmWare tools, if I understood it well), so I don't know if it's an improvement only, neither where to find it for oVirt and Fedora.

Hu ho, I think I hit this bug :
http://thr3ads.net/libguestfs/2011/11/1623975-Virtio-win-RPM and http://thr3ads.net/libguestfs/2011/11/1624040-Windows-P2V-migration-temporar...
I have a RHN account, so I was able to download the missing virtio-win rpm and install it on F17 (seemless). Import is now working for windows guest, though some more errors are to be treated manually (eth virtio errors), but harmless.
how about wiki-fying this thread for others? Thanks, Itamar
