Has anyone else had problems transferring across? All the Windows HVM machines went smoothly but I can't even transfer through Clonezilla.

Right now I am trying to export the .XVA, then xva-img to raw and then convert to qcow2 (qemu-img). That worked fine for Windows but for Linux after it boots into CentOS and top left is a flashing __

Never mind fixed it by switching to HVM and the transfer worked.

Updated /boot/grub/grub.conf

  1. Remove console=hvc0
  2. Add GRUB_TERMINAL=console


and then I updated the VM to use HVM

xe vm-param-set HVM-boot-policy="BIOS order" uuid=VMID
