Hey all!

I´ve been taking a stab at getting this piece of software working on my
favourite platform, following the info from BZ1469347[*] I got it
running but noticed it didn´t do anything useful, much of the code is
too different.

By the way, I can just tell you that you actually don´t have to run the
guest agent to shut down a FreeBSD VM from the UI, it does that fine
without it, which is cool, don´t know how though.

So I started hacking it a bit, far from feature complete, and most
likely never will for _all_ features; containers e.g. But with a little
effort, I have some working highlights:

- PkgMgr
- getAvailableRAM
- getDisksUsage
- _get_meminfo
- _get_vmstat
- ovirt-osinfo

I have attached a patchset to the mail that you can review and comment,
if you think I should keep at it or throw it in the bin :)

/K
