[sf-lug] Virtual Box running fine...

Quoting Michael Paoli <Michael.Paoli at cal.berkeley.edu>:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Although VirtualBox is (much) more cross-platform in terms of host 
Operating System, and somewhat simpler install and setup,.......

As for qemu-kvm, I've been using it for years, works great!  :-)
Also, for the most part, very easy to manage via CLI - can't say that for 
VirtualBox.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A good approach of "doing virtual", then, might be to start off with 
VirtualBox (since it's more flexible and easier to install on host OS's 
than is qemu-kvm), and then eventually transition to the latter when one 
has sufficiently-capable hardware+firmware as well as the more advanced 
expertise and skillset that Michael P and Rick M have, in order to 
effectively manage qemu-kvs via the CLI and using libvert :-)
