Invoking kvm (qemu-kvm) from the CLI:
kvm \
-boot d \
-cdrom /path/name/to/liveCD/iso/file \
-drive file=${IMG_FILE},index=0,boot=off \
[other kvm command line options like networking]
where IMG_FILE=/path/to/VM/image/file
I use System Rescue CD for the CD ROM. It does have XFCE GUI support
+ GParted. A simple startx fires up a XFCE desktop and voila you can
use the Graphical GParted utility on the VM "hard disk".
