WouldnÂt it be easier to export to .ovf and then import the ovf image into VirtualBox?. The whole idea of OVF is to ease exchange of VMs from one program to another.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Virtualization_Format "A lot of this (moving from one hypervisor to another) wouldnât be possible without the OVF, its great that so many people got behind it so quickly. The last thing we need in the virtualization space is vendor lock in. In short you can export your Virtual Machines into OVF format and from there into your new hypervisors format. Most modern hypervisors will support this. Interestingly, while VMware ESX(i) supports it, VMware Server 2 didnt â but VMware provide OVFtool for this very purpose." http://opensourcegeek.org/tag/kvm/ FC -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
