I cannot shutdown the system, so i cannot dump the fs. rsync does not require a reboot. Still, at some time you will be required doing a shutdown and a boot on the new system > I tryied to do that by copying all files/dirs via ssh (compressing them with tar zcvpf) and then uncompressing the archive into a mounted lvm volume, but it seems that Sarge was using an old version of e2fsprogs and it cannot boot due to a ext3 incompatibility problem. That seems not to have much to do with being not able to shut down a VM. So, you created the ext3 filesystem from somehwere else, right? I don't know the state of ext3 in sarge and the incompatibilities between sarge and etch - this is a debian-users question. But I'd try if it works better with plain ext2 - you can add the journal stuff with the standard sarge tools when the new system is running.
