Spawn ArchLinux Libvirt Domain

Script to easily spawn and install a new ArchLinux VM on Libvirt. This script is not meant to be generic, and is extremely tied to my setup, but you can fork it and adapt it to your setup.

Requires:

  • For raw images: util-linux (losetup)
  • For qcow2 images: qemu (qemu-nbd)
  • arch-install-scripts (arch-chroot)

Usage

Run ./new_vm.sh:

$ ./new_vm.sh -h

usage: ./new_vm.sh [-h] -n NAME

Wrapper to create a kvm domain based on ArchLinux

required arguments:
    -n NAME, --name NAME   container name to create

optional arguments:
    -D, --dryrun  does not install the vm, just print the virt-install command
    -h, --help    show this help message and exit
