Hi Martin,
I can finally confirm that the solution 2 of the link you gave me worked
for me too!
I followed those indications before creating a vmdk with vmware
converter, then I converted the vmdk in a raw image with "qemu-img
convert" and finally doing a dd in the drbd device done the trick!
Still remains the fact that doing P2V with Win2k is some kind of wild
horse (for example if you use the vmvga video driver it freezes), but
you give me a big hand. So thank you very much!
