How am I able to setup a new Win10-VM in ?

aqemu which I was using for years is broken in NixOS since at least one major release. It doesn't even install when I allow broken packages for a nix-shell.

qt5-virt-manager doesn't seem to have a VM setup wizard.

is not able to find the installed qemu-img to create a new virtual disk ("Ensure that you have installed qemu-img in your system and it's available").

Any ideas what I could try?

vDPA: support for block devices in and – from @sgarzarella

https://stefano-garzarella.github.io/posts/2024-02-12-vdpa-blk/

"'"A vDPA device is a type of device that follows the virtio specification for its datapath but has a vendor-specific control path.

vDPA devices can be both physically located on the hardware or emulated by software.

[…]

Below are several examples on how to use VDUSE and the QEMU Storage Daemon with VMs (QEMU) or Containers (podman). These steps are easily adaptable […]

So, @darth got me thinking... I have an old Phenom II X4 965 Black lying around. And I do have an old AM3 socket mobo, I also have an old case that is missing some screws. I might dig through my junk pile and build something. Use what I already have and only buy the parts I absolutely need.

I'm imagining maybe a server that is basically a hypervisor using and that will run , , , etc. basically all the POISX OSs I want to play around with.

TIL that you can just do this:

dnf install qemu-user-static-riscv slirp4netns podman

podman run --platform=linux/riscv64 -it docker.io/riscv64/ubuntu bash
root@88bb76ac7391:/# uname -a
Linux 88bb76ac7391 6.8.0-0.rc0.20240112git70d201a40823.5.fc40.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Jan 12 16:56:17 UTC 2024 riscv64 riscv64 riscv64 GNU/Linux

Note the weird combo of Fedora Rawhide kerneland riscv64 emulated by qemu 🤨

slirp4netns is this weird thing for unprivileged network namespaces:

https://github.com/rootless-containers/slirp4netns

It's required by #podman because it runs without root privs.

The #RISCV in #QEMU thing also works with classic #docker, but I'd rather use Podman for improved isolation.

I wish hadn't devolved to running in

It is so much faster to use a cross-build toolchain! Even if you run that in Docker!

Setting up the company provided Macbook pro M2 with @AsahiLinux for Linux engineering/support/development.
The M2 is aarch64, deployment of a virtualized aarch64 Linux guest takes 160 seconds.

Thanks to , also emulation of x86 is possible! Deployment of a x86 Linux guest takes 900seconds, quite reasonable considering all is emulated.

Fun fact: deploying a x86 guest with 1 single core is faster than with 2 or 4 cores.

One of our major contributors to released a slightly older Haiku version that can be checked in either , or , created a local package for RVVM to test out these images and I can launch them (checked with QEMU and RVVM).

Check out the post and link here:

Note that you can't do a lot with it at this moment, so you are warned. :)

does anyone know of a stupid simple proxmox UI/API App or some other Hypervisor that i could give people access to self clone a BASE VM image and run it.
These are non-technical people that i want to basically give a Start/Stop/Revert option to, without to much more. and without having to spend hours teaching each person.
