qemu-img used the "sparse file"
feature of your file system to not
actually allocate disk sectors for many of the all-zero blocks
in
the raw file. Your iso creation tool did not.

thanks, was a permission problem, to change it solved the issue
I have another doubt, converting it to raw generate a 126.9GB file.
However df shows that the space used in the partition is only 8.x GB.
And now I am converting the raw file to an iso file and the iso is
really occupying space.
So why the space occupied by the raw file seems to do not exists and
the one from Iso does?
And why the Iso is becaming so big?
Thanks for the aid.

Hello, I tried to convert a .vmdk file to a raw file with this
command: "qemu-img convert -f vmdk /media/windows/WinXP-disk1.vmdk
winxp.raw"
The result was: "qemu-img: Could not open
'/media/windows/WinXP-disk1.vmdk"
I am sure that the vmdk file, WinXP-disk1.vmdk it is in the dir
/media/windows
So what I am doing wrongly?
Which qemu-img version are you using? Or which commit in the case of git
tree?
Enjoy
