- guestfish: no operating system was found on this disk
- If using guestfish ‘-i’ option, remove this option and instead
- use the commands ‘run’ followed by ‘list-filesystems’.
- You can then mount filesystems you want by hand using the
- ‘mount’ or ‘mount-ro’ command.
- If using guestmount ‘-i’, remove this option and choose the
- filesystem(s) you want to see by manually adding ‘-m’ option(s).
- Use ‘[[virt-filesystems]]’ to see what filesystems are available.
- If using other virt tools, this disk image won’t work
- with these tools.  Use the guestfish equivalent commands
- (see the virt tool manual page).
