If you use -vnc, then KVM runs and just sits there on the command line. It doesn't prompt you when it's ready or anything. So you can connect via VNC as soon as you start KVM. You connect with VNC just like you normally would to a server running a regular VNC server. --Brian Jackson On Tuesday 24 February 2009 10:40:45 Fermín Manzanedo Guzmán wrote: > Hi. > > In order to improve virtualization capabilities to our company we are > trying to use KVM instead other techonolgies. > > Our servers haven't X-Window System enabled due to performance and > security criteria. > > ¿Is it possible to install KVM guests whitout X?
