For a graphical GUI frontend for this you can use app-emulation/virt-manager.

In the virt-manager, I could not figure out how to add disk storage

is this different from the virtual machine image?
It depends.™

(this will give the bridge interface an IP/etc - most likely you'll
just set this file up the way you'd otherwise be setting up your

Then you'll tell virt-manager to use the brkvm bridge for all your VMs

It appears to me that, with a grsecurity-hardened kernel-base Gentoo
machine, using TBB is next to impossible (tried it, doesn't work the
simple user way _at all_). Neither did I have much luck with Whonix, since

There's no requirement
these things while browsing through the 'details'

I'm using qemu-kvm for hoisting a Windows 7, but always typing the
long commandline is anoying, so I wrote a little script to start the

quiet easy. This system also

Very little overhead, VMs feel fast and snappy.
For gui I use virt-manager on top of libvirt, nice feature
solution you should also be looking at stuff like VMWare (I don't know
how well the FOSS solutions do as far as enterprise-y features go).
In any case, while not quite as simple as Virtualbox I've found that
virt-manager is very easy to use once you've gotten networking set up

Some more general suggestions:
1. I use Virtualbox on Windows as there aren't a lot of good free
alternatives that I'm aware of. I stopped using it on Linux ages ago
because KVM/libvirt are generally much better these days.
app-emulation/virt-manager is a nice front-end
. It's firefox:
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
14072 iain 20 0 1369m 897m 15m S 3 29.5 113:14.91 firefox
I think that's 1.3Gb + 900Mb... sounds like a memory leak to me.
Anyone else run firefox for 113+ hours? I'm using 3.6.9-r1.

virt-manager is very easy to use once you've gotten networking set up

to use the GUI for setting things up and for graphical guests, and I

There are no topics off limit for this and we really would like more people to
join in.

Given the addition of GCC-10 and LLVM/Clang-10 to our repositories
Virtualbox, you will notice this issue. When only snapshotting
the disk, your snapshot is basically the state of when you literally pulled
the plug of your VM if you want to restore back to this.
For KVM, I have found a few hints that this was planned. But I have not found
anything about this. Virt
einstall it.
This brings another problem I have with KVM/QEMU: all howtos and documents I
find show long commandline options to just start the VM.
I have not found one where I can provide all the config in a single file and
use that. Allowing me to duplicate settings by simply copying the file and
changing a few lines.
KVM/Qemu seems to be written to be used together with virt-manager which, for
me, lacks important features to make it usable in production.
