+description: How to start a simple qemu vm, no gui!

+
+## Introduction
+
+I know I already blogged about it in 2019 in [this article]({{< ref "qemu.md" >}}) but it is good to refresh one's memory for something so useful. No virt-manager or any other gui required, no complicated networking... It's easy!
+
+## Installation
+
+```sh
+qemu-img create -f raw alpine.raw 16G
+qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=alpine.raw,format=raw,cache=writeback \
+                   -cdrom Downloads/alpine-virt-3.14.0-x86_64.iso \
+                   -net user -boot d -machine type=q35,accel=kvm \
+                   -cpu host -smp 2 -m 1024 -vnc :0
+```
+
+Connect to the console with a `vncviewer localhost`.
+
+## Afterwards
+
+```sh
+qemu-system-x86_64 -drive file=alpine.raw,format=raw,cache=writeback \
+                   -net user -machine type=q35,accel=kvm \
+                   -cpu host -smp 2 -m 1024 -vnc :0
+```
