General Questions • Convert VirtualBox to KVM issues...

I have a Linux Mint VM that I mounted in VirtualBox until the new kernel killed VB. I converted the vdi to img then to qcow2 using

Code:

vboxmanage clonehd --format RAW LinOnLin.vdi LinOnLin.img
then

Code:

qemu-img convert -f raw LinOnLin.img -O qcow2 LinOnLin.qcow2
. The vdi is 2.1MB, the img is 42.9GB, the qcow2 is 197.2KB. There is a further vdi in a subfolder that is 101.9GB (much closer to expected size that OS had as a disk). I create a new vm in Virtual Machine Manager using the qcow2 image but it doesn't boot. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
