[ovirt-users] converting windows guests with v2v, where to put the iso?

[Jeremiah Jahn]

Solution #2

download the src rpm from
http://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server/en/RHOS/SRPMS/

build the rpm
rpmbuild --rebuild virtio-win-1.6.8-4.el6.src.rpm

install the rpm
rpm -Uhv  ~/rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/virtio-win-1.6.8-4.el6.noarch.rpm
