Why mounting a virt image on the host causes permissions errors with guestmount as root?
Issue
- Guestmount was used to mount a snapshot of the guest's disk image, which seems to work very well unless you want to use it as root, as access is prevented
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux
- Guestmount version lower than 1.20.11-7.el6
