Presently I build kvm hosts with a minimal install and add whatever
packages are required to get kvm working and provide my customary
administrative tools. The kvm guests get the user applications. I
simply want to have a similar arrangement on my personal workstation
so that my experiments do not become invisibly dependent upon
something I have installed for my own use.
Basically, I want to simply leave the host configuration alone once
kvm is running and do my mucking about in a virtual machine.
