Common problems
How can we solve these common user problems?

- In guestfish, specified -m non-existent filesystem. We could suggest
- a list of filesystems, or suggest they run the virt-list-filesystems
- command.

We would like to add:
- Direct access to the /dev/mapper device (eg. if it contains
anything apart from VGs).

+Display image as PS
+-------------------
-virt-tar is really clumsy to use, and upload/download in guestfish can
-only do single files. tar-in in guestfish can upload multiple files,
-but only if you have prepared a tarball in advance.
+Display the structure of an image file as a PS.

What we really need is a method which is as easy to use as 'scp' an
d
-'scp -r'.

Greater use of blkid / libblki
d
+-------------------------------
-Can we add this as a command in guestfish? This will be more useful
-since users will already need to be in guestfish in order to create
-target directories, review what they've done etc. It could be a meta-
-command such as:
+guestfs_zero should use wipefs. See wipefs(8).
- copy-in-recursive localdir remotedir
- copy-out-recursive remotedir localdir
+There are various useful functions in libblkid for listing partitions,
+devices etc which we are essentially duplicating in the daemon. It
+would make more sense to just use libblkid for this.
-which would hide use of tgz-in etc.
+There are some places where we call out to the 'blkid' program. This
+might be replaced by direct use of the library (if this is easier).
