Hi there,
I've found some documentation on how to convert Xen virtual machines to
virtualbox but these make some assumptions which are not universally valid.
The problem I have is that, instead of using the 'container' based virtual
machines (ie a file which contains a partition table and partitions for a
number of disks) we use filesystem based virtual machines.
In these VMs the root filesystem of the virtual machine under Xen is a
logical volume under LVM and the VMs filesystem can be directly mounted on
the host (while the VM isn't running, of course).
Also a lot of the documentation uses VMWare converter. Thats not going to
work out as it appears to be a Windows-only application.
I've got a tarball of one of these root filesystems and I'd quite like to
get it running under virtualbox.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.

sorting office and expecting what is written on it to be private and secret
is not realistic. Please hold no higher expectation of email.
If you need to send confidential information in an email you need to use
encryption. PGP is Pretty good for this.
