Later this week I will have to install a serious KVM setup, and I am
looking for background material.
I found a nice how-to:

...but it is probably partly outdated by now.
Then there is a fine virtualization manual:
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/5.2/Virtualization/
...but it seems to be only for xen.
I plan to use either CentOS 5.6 or Scientific Linux 6.0 as the host
system. Though I don't know yet, if v6.0 will bring any actual benefits
over 5.6.
My guests will all be CentOS 4 or 5. Disk I/O will probably be a
potential bottleneck. I am interested in the "block device" strategy,
and could use more info about it.
