I did read those. On page 31 the instructions say that kvm can
be installed via yum by saying "yum install kvm". That's where I got
stuck.

This host is a remote machine, and I will not have physical access to
it until next month. While I do plan to scrap it and install C7, I
don't feel like attempting to do that remotely. :-)

As for guests that should run on that host, I figured that I could
create and run them even now, and just back them up when I get to
upgrading the host. I wouldn't like to waste a whole month of guests not
running, just waiting for the host upgrade.

So, is there any possibility to have kvm on C5?

Best, :-)
Marko
