+snapshot=on fails with non file-based storage
+
+The snapshot=on option doesn't work with an nbd block device:
+
+/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
+[...]
+    -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi \
+    -drive file=nbd:localhost:61930,snapshot=on,format=raw,id=hd0,if=none \
+    -device scsi-hd,drive=hd0 \
+[...]
+
+gives the error:
+
+qemu-system-x86_64: -drive file=nbd:localhost:61930,snapshot=on,format=raw,id=hd0,if=none: could not open disk image nbd:localhost:61930: No such file or directory
+
+If you remove the snapshot=on flag, it works (although that of course means that the block device is writable which we don't want).
+
+Previously reported here:
+
+  http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/148390
+
+and I can confirm this still happens in qemu 1.4.0.
+
+Triaging old bug tickets... I think this has likely been fixed in 2013 ... or can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU? Could we close this ticket nowadays?
+
+Let's close this.  libguestfs doesn't use snapshot=on any longer.
