Installation de Qemu:

sudo apt-get install qemu-kvm libvirt-bin ubuntu-vm-builder bridge-utils virt-manager python-spice-client-gtk gir1.2-spice-client-gtk-3.0

Passons à l'étape suivante:

usermod -a -G libvirtd $(whoami)

# id $(whoami)
uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),137(libvirtd)

$ sudo virsh -c qemu:///system list

Convertissons l'image au format vmdk vers qcow2 pour qemu:

# qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O qcow2 "Windows 7 (2).vmdk" hdd.qcow2

Pour lancer l'image Windows depuis votre station linux:

# qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4G -smp 2 --enable-kvm hdd.qcow2
