Interesting. I'm using a base installation of Fedora 8, 64 bit version,
and all packages are directly out of the distro. The error crops up as
soon as I launch the tool:

[root@localhost ~]# virt-clone -d -o vm1 -n vm2 -f /opt/VMs/vm2.img
Tue, 12 Feb 2008 12:25:30 DEBUG    start clone with HV qemu:///system

['/opt/VMs/rhel4u6-3.img']

Tue, 12 Feb 2008 12:25:30 DEBUG    clone device type: [True]
Tue, 12 Feb 2008 12:25:30 DEBUG    Disk path not found: Assuming file

ERROR:  Disk size must be an int or a float.
What would you like to use as the disk (path)?

As mentioned, the error also crops up using the latest dev snapshot.
