David,
How exactly are you invoking it? And when you say "it says," which
"it"?
There's more than one way to start a VM. Which are you using?
All we have to go by is your command to virt-clone - which was correct and
works for a great many people - and your observation that your cloned VM
wouldn't boot. Since the problem's most likely not in virt-clone, we'll need
more details on the rest of your procedure to have any chance of spotting
where the problem is.

FATAL: failed to boot from device.
Or something very similar.
