Hi All, I am new to the list. I understand it may be possible for QEUM
to take a VMware image and
convert the VMware file format so that it can run on a XEN/VPS (domu).
I would appreciate if anyone can confirm this for me. Also, any further
comments/suggestions
to the above would be helpful!
Joe

Yes, it can be done.
Just tell qemu-img to convert it from VMware format to raw format.
See the man page for more info.
