Hi,

I am pleased to announce that the fourth title of VIMINAL LiveDVD collection called VODKA lab (Virtualization Operation Discovery on KVM Architecture) can be used as a KVM tutorial.

VIMINAL (VIrtual Model for Ip Network Architecture Lab) platform is an autonomous network and system lab environment. Available on a liveDVD, it offers network models on which you have extended rights. It integrates all the materials needed to play system and IP network labs on common computers. The main goal is to play such labs, with no installation nor configuration modifications on your computer.

VODKA lab (Virtualisation Operation Discovery on Kvm Architecture) : This lab is a tutorial for the discovery and ownership of KVM (Kernel based Virtual Machine) virtualization environment, libvirt library and related tools like "virsh", "virt-install", "virt -manager". This is the first variation of VIMINAL based on KVM and libvirt "virsh" instead of VNUML (Virtual Network UserMode Linux).

Tutorial instruction sheet is available in english and in french under CC-BY-NC-SA license.
