Public bug reported:
Booting ubuntu_precise-desktop-i386.iso under kvm results in
/var/log/upstart/whoopsie.log containing:
Could not open the product uuid file.
This is because by default kvm does not create a uuid by default. As
such, there is no /sys/class/dmi/id/product_uuid file which whoopsie is
attempting to read.
kvm can generate a uuid by booting it with the --uuid option:
kvm --uuid <uuid> ...
