I'm running Kubuntu Jaunty 9.04 on an AMD Phenom II 910, with a custom
2.6.28 kernel. I want to install KVM with a Windows XP guest. Apologies
I'm confused as to exactly what to install ....

-I can (should?) apt-get install KVM and/or QEMU from the Jaunty archives.
-I can configure KVM into my custom kernel using CONFIG_KVM=m,
CONFIG_KVM_AMD=m and a couple other .config options.
-I can download, compile and install kvm-84 from source for my kernel
On this basis I would presumably invoke qemu-system-x86_64 from
the install directory.

This is a home not production system, and I'd like to get the best guest
performance possible. I'm a little confused between KVM and QEMU ... I
know there's a KVM kernel module(s) plus the facility to run the virtual
guest, but I'm unsure which of the above choices to use. Would appreciate
recommendations and/or pointers to useful docs.

Thanks!
