Simple KVM Installation

This content pack does a very fast and opinionated basic (simple) installation of KVM on the following systems:

  • CentOS 7
  • CentOS 8
  • Ubuntu 18.04

Other distros that track compatibility with the above versions, package names, and command structures may potentially work too.

No post-install configuration or setup of the KVM environment is done at this time. For example, no Bridges or network related configurations for the Virtual machines.

Additionally - the default DHCP service (likely dnsmasq) is still running, which may present a potential conflict with the DRP Endpoint DHCP services if they are on the same Layer 2 network as the KVM hypervisor systems.
