I just uploaded an ISO image of KLV-vmHost-rc3 to a Mega.nz cloud drive! A Link for download is in the first post of this topic.
KLV-vmHost-rc3 has libvirt clipboard functionality between guest and host, provided by spice-vdagentd
added in by @JusGellin
Diagnosed by @fredx181, we added the missing dependency package dialog
needed for save2flash
notification windows.
Complete rolling update done as indicated by the upload date.
This makes using virt-manager so easy! Thanks for this and the improvements.
As I use this I have become more familiar using it.
I really like the prompt that comes up on a reboot asking if I want to save to save folder. If I don't do that after making a vm, I lose the vm!
Here's some things I now noticed as I'm becoming more familiar with it that should be noted:
For installing this on a computer, I noticed that if I run this as an iso from Ventoy in order to copy the extracted iso to partition 2 ,
and then using this iso's menu selection of Grub2 bootloader config
for making partition 1 bootable, that it isn't bootable.
The grub.cfg it makes doesn't seem to be complete enough for the menu item.
So I use the structure that this makes for the efi partition 1 and then run the script from the iso called wd_grubconfig
to get the proper
menu items to make it work and copy those menu items into the grub.cfg.
The first item you mentioned above isn't quite what I meant for the clipboard copy using spice-vdagent
.
This has to be installed on a vm that was built to make this work. The host doesn't need it.
But the install, which goes to /var/usr/spice-vdagentd
has to be symlinked to /run/spice-vdagentd
to make this work.
I think this will be valuable for how I work with trying different linux/puppy distributions.
I especially like that, even though I can make individual save folder backups of the puppy/kl distributions, with this, I can make snapshots of them
to go back to as well. This gives me a lot of freedom to go back when something happens to go wrong (which does).
Thank you for making this.
