KVM (Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a popular virtualization technology that allows you to run multiple operating systems on a single Linux host. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install KVM on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS.
First, you need to install the required packages for KVM using the following command:
sudo dnf install qemu-kvm qemu-img virt-manager libvirt libvirt-python libvirt-client virt-install virt-viewer
After installing the packages, you need to enable and start the libvirtd service using the following command:
sudo systemctl enable libvirtd
sudo systemctl start libvirtd
You can verify the KVM installation by running the following command:
sudo virsh list --all
This command will show you the list of all available virtual machines.
That’s it! You have successfully installed KVM on the latest version of Fedora CoreOS. Now, you can use KVM to create and manage virtual machines on your server.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
