Hi all :) I want to create a KVM image from an existing iso file (for glance on OpenStack), but I didn't find how to do it. Can you help me please?

Create a VM with a size (6G below) (it will be small until the install is done into it)

qemu-img create myvm.img -f qcow2 6G

Then install the iso into your vm

kvm -m 750 -cdrom ${PWD}/whatever.iso -boot d myvm.img

And run it in 990M of memory:

kvm -m 990 myvm.img
