Hi Dmitry, A bug that can lead to corruption was recently discovered in the vdi image format code in QEMU. The vdi image format code is only designed to work for importing/exporting image files in qemu-img convert. It is not suitable for running guests and achieving good I/O performance. I recommend using raw or qcow2 image files instead. Stefan
