Why use raw Qemu vs something like virt-manager that's a wrapper around Qemu/KVM + libvirt?


If you know qemu there's little need for the wrappers, and the author seems to know qemu.


I assumed there was some reason like unusual configuration and such.


I don't think so, it looks like it's making a fairly generic 64 bit computer, with the mentioned nvme being the only notable component.


They probably wanted to make it as generic as possible. virt-manager is not available for windows for instance and it's very slow to run it remotely.
