[virt-tools-list] p2v: disk dump on a running machine

[lluis]

I configured remote syslog attempting to get more info on this, but logs
don't show any error, apart of this:

 kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x21
 kernel: hda: DMA timeout error
 kernel: hda: dma timeout error: status=0xd8 { Busy }
 kernel: 
 kernel: hda: DMA disabled
 kernel: ide0: reset: success

can be related to hangs? (sometimes we have these errors and virtual
machine continues running)
