Install & Setup QEMU/KVM to Run Virtual Machines in Ubuntu 24.04 This is a step by step guide shows how to install and manage virtual machines using qemu/kvm solution in Ubuntu 24.04. KVM,Kernel-based Virtual Machine,is a module in Linux Kernel that can function as a hypervisor. It offers a high performance virtualization environment withhardware virtualization extensions,such as Intel VT or AMD-V that’s built in CPU. KVM does not directly function in user-space. It requires a user-space application,such as QEMU,to interact withit and manage virtual machines. As QEMU is a command line tool,there’s also graphical tool,such as Virtual Machine Manager,to make it easy to use. 1. Load KVM Kernel module and install...
