The error comes from qemu and indicates qemu cannot open this
temporary disk image.  I've no idea why it cannot open it, but
possibilities include: SELinux, file permissions (eg on /tmp), setting
of TMPDIR, relative path to a backing file, and more ...

I'd suggest that you 'strace -f' the whole set of processes to see
what precise system call fails.
