Thanks for that, might be there is some other way to use fvd. Rather than the one I just used. -----Original Message----- From: Daniel P.

Please try to ask qemu guys how to fix this. Actually it is a libvirt error message. if ((format = virStorageFileFormatTypeFromString(formatStr)) < 0) { virDomainReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("unknown disk format '%s' for %s"), disk->driverType, disk->src); goto cleanup; } } else { We don't have any support for FVD in src/util/storage_file.[ch] We could add this in, but first we have to ask wether the FVD disk format actually has any future ? My understanding is that FVD is not going to be merged into QEMU, and that the good ideas from it, will used to create a QCow3 format.
