Public bug reported:
I have a Vmware image, so I have files like 'Ubuntu.vmdk', want to
convert to VirtualBox .vdi format using qemu, the first stage of
extracting the image with 'qemu-img convert Ubuntu.vmdk output.bin' just
generates a 512byte file:

Please post the output of "qemu-img info Ubuntu.vmdk". I suspect this
image file is not being recognized as vmdk and is being treated as a
raw image, hence the literal copy of its 512-byte sector size
contents.
I have CCed Fam who is working on VMDK image format improvements and
may be able to help here.

It's not. It's the "text" vmdk format which has nothing to do with the
binary vmdk images. I really need to get back to my hacked up support
for them and then them in. Until then vmware has a toolset to download
on their website which allows to convert these into a single large
binary vmdk file.
