### Simple usage with Virt-Manager

One option is to use the **virt-manager** frontend for **libvirt** and **Qemu/KVM**.

On first launch we are prompted with an error about a failed connection to the libvirt daemon:

This error can be ignored; to avoid it the future we will right-click on the only entry in the list
**QEMU/KVM - Not Running** and delete it.
`QEMU/KVM - Not Running` and delete it.

Now we need to add a session mode connect. For this go into the the **File** menu, and select
**Add Connection...**. A new window will appear, you will need to select **QEMU/KVM user session**

Now we need to add a session mode connection. This will allow us to use unpriviledged virtual machines.
For this go into the the `File` menu, and select `Add Connection...`.

#### Creating a simple virtual machine in virt-manager

Click on the create new virtual machine button and you will be prompted to start configuring the virtual machine:

When selecting a disk image to install, you will probably notice that libvirt looks in an odd location for disk images.
The default location is `~/.local/share/libvirt/images`. You can add more, or more simply you can just ignore this,
and select **Browse Local** to freely select and image.

Continue with the configuration of the basic attributes of your virtual machine:

Once done your virtual machine will start automatically:

You can proceed with a regular installation, use a live image, etc.

You may install the **qemu-guest-agent** and/or **spice-vdagent** and/or **xserver-xorg-video-qxl** in the running
virtual machine to improve integration (though this is not strictly necessary and may present extra security concerns).
