All, i am a newbi to the openstack. I am trying to create a QCOW2 image from a Centos Linux installation iso and ran into the a road block. This is what I did so far (just followed the admin manual for Openstack).<BR>

IMAGE=centos-6.2.img<BR>$ qemu-img create -f raw $IMAGE 5G<BR>
<BR>
VNCDISPLAY=:2<BR>$ MONITOR=/tmp/file.mon<BR>$ sudo /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 1024 -drive file=${IMAGE},if=virtio,index=0 \<BR>-boot c -net nic -net user -nographic -vnc ${VNCDISPLAY} \<BR>-monitor unix:${MONITOR},server,nowait<BR>
<BR>
I have the distribution iso on the local directory of the user. <BR>
<BR>
I got the following error. what am i missing here?<BR>
<BR>
qemu-kvm: -drive file=centos-6.2.img,if=virtio,index=0: could not open disk image centos-6.2.img:Operation not supported<BR>
