Slackware provides -pre-built 32/64 bit x86 kvm-kmod modules or you can build different -versions with the kvm-kmod package. - -While qemu-kvm can virtualize many system guest types (e.g. alpha, arm, -i386, ppc, x86_64, s390, sparc), not all these system guest types utilize -the kvm-kmod modules. For those system guest types that don't utilize -the kvm-kmod modules, it is recommended to use the qemu package instead -of this qemu-kvm package. - -The qemu-kvm SlackBuild renames the primary binary from 'qemu-system- -x86_64' to 'qemu-kvm' so that the qemu SlackBuild won't overwrite it -if both packages are installed on the same host system. The qemu-kvm -SlackBuild patches the installed udev rules so that you no longer are -required to use the system group 'kvm' as the default. The 'users' -group is set as the default in this SlackBuild. If you want to use a -different group, then run the SlackBuild like this: - KVMGROUP=group sh qemu-kvm.SlackBuild - -Don't forget to load the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' module (depending on -your processor) prior to running 'qemu-kvm'. - -spice and usbredir are optional dependencies. |
