Hello,
I am new to OpenRC and I try to install KVM/QEMU with virtualmanager. I installed Gnome version of ARTIX:
https://iso.artixlinux.org/testing-isos.php (https://iso.artixlinux.org/testing-isos.php)
I try to follow the instruction for installation with SystemD from:
https://www.fosslinux.com/2484/how-to-install-virtual-machine-manager-kvm-in-manjaro-and-arch-linux.htm (https://www.fosslinux.com/2484/how-to-install-virtual-machine-manager-kvm-in-manjaro-and-arch-linux.htm)
Of course I have to use equivalent instructions for OpenRC:
so I used:
sudo rc-update add /bin/libvirtd default
It says that I installed libvirtd successfuly,
but I cannot see it after I type:
rc-status -a
I have an error when I start Virtual Machine Manger about libvirtd.
1. How it should be done correctly?
2. Is there instruction for installing KVM/QEMU for OpenRC somewhere?
I installed Artix Gnome in a Virtualbox vm recently, it was quite easy, although I had to enable virtualisation in my BIOS menu before it would work.
KVM works perfectly on Artix, as does Virtualbox.
Did you install pkg libvirt-openrc ?
For pointers on openrc on Artix pls check https://wiki.artixlinux.org/Main/OpenRC
pacman -S libvirt-openrc
and restart helped.
Thanx
It looks like it is working but I still have links to (ls -l /etc/runlevels/default) libvirt -> /bin/libvirtd
I can see that now there exists file at location /etc/init.d/libvirtd
Should I relink it or it doesn't matter?
