I haven't tried it, but in theory you could take a clonezilla image of the physical machine and restore it to a KVM disk image: Just create the initial virtual drives at least as large as the originals, boot clonezilla in the VM and restore from the images.
That's an excellent idea! I didn't consider it when I was trying to figure out how to migrate a physical CentOS 5 server to a KVM.
I will try this just for shits and giggles.

This is pretty awesome for linux boxen, but just so that you know, it'll not be as straight forward for a windows box! That puppy there is an adventure in itself.
But just to note - Did the migration go smoothly?
