I seem to be having an issue (hot-clone) converting a RedHat ES 3 box to our VM environment using the Standalone Converter.
I consistently get to 99% conversion at which point I get: Error: Failed to reconfigure the target virtual machine.
Reading into the logs I have noticed there appears to be an issue with GRUB?
From the logs:
