KVM

Kernel Setup

KVM is essentially a kernel-accelerated version of QEMU. To enable KVM support in the user-space tools, add the following lines to /etc/make.conf:

QEMU_SOFTMMU_TARGETS="i386 x86_64"
QEMU_USER_TARGETS="i386 x86_64"

#  emerge qemu-kvm

KVM setup docs can be found here:

#  qemu-img create -f qcow2 vdisk.qcow2 10
#  qemu-system-x86_64 vdisk.qcow2 -m 1024 -cdrom systemrescuecd.iso  -net nic -net user
