Re-explain
Hardware Requirements:
- CPU with virtualization extensions (Intel VT-x or AMD-V)
- Sufficient RAM (depends on VM requirements)
- Storage space for VM images
Software Requirements:
- Linux kernel with KVM modules (kvm, kvm_intel/kvm_amd)
- QEMU package installed
- libvirt (optional but recommended for management)
Verification commands:
# Check CPU virtualization support
egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
# Check if KVM modules are loaded
lsmod | grep kvm
# Verify KVM device exists
ls -la /dev/kvm
