I'm still trying to migrate a win7 vm from citrix to ovirt.
I can do a clean install, but I haven't been able to get a migrated vm past the windows initial splash screen.
It gets to that and blue screens. It then will reboot and I can select recovery mode, and that runs fine.
If I manually add the virtstor driver, aI can see the OS disk and it tries to run a repair, which doesn't work.
I even tried installing the ovirt tools on the vm before I export it from ctrix, but still no good.
Any suggestions?

Did you install the new video driver for kvm on the running system as
well?
vaguely recall a need to convert the vm disk mode to some ide
something...
I have 0 experience with citrix. The existing vm may be in some custom,
non-standard format that virt-v2v can't make sense of.
