Simple and Effective Virtualization in Linux (QEMU + Quickemu)

[@ronitgandhi7716]

Oh man what a gem of a content you have here. You deserve alot like a lot subscriber. I have watched and learned alot from your linux previliage escalation and web exploitation series. I would love to learn more cybersecurity stuff from you.

Thanks so much, I will keep teaching much, much more!

19:06 I just use virt-manager directly. First, I click "Create a new virtual machine." I usually have the iso downloaded, so I go with "Local install." When it asks for the iso, I click "Browse," and it shows up there (I set up a pool for the dir where I keep my isos).
Then, I assign some ram. For the disk, when it asks for the size, I pick "Select or create custom storage," then hit "Manage," and since I already have a disk pool on a mounted HDD, I just add a new volume there.
After that, it shows the selected configurations, and once I press "Finish," the VM is created and starts automatically.
If i don't have the iso i could go with "Network Install", however i prefer downloading the iso separately first...

Hey! Awesome video man ,
Can you please share the Emacs config you using?

Hello Hexdump
I would appreciate it if you could create in-depth courses or videos on threat hunting and malware analysis. Thank you!

[@hexdump1337]

Thanks for the suggestion, right now I'm focusing more on active exploitation, but threat hunting is also a very interesting field, as it is malware analysis. One of the two I would probably give priority to the second, as that is extremely linked with Reverse Engineering.

What's the note taking app you use?

[@hexdump1337]

@@drmikeyg It’s called Emacs! I made a video on it, in the future I will showcase it more thoroughly

How do you manage the gpu power to the virtual machine? Every time i use qemu it feels really slow, much slower than virtualbox

[@hexdump1337]

@@reiayanami1441 Hmm, for my use cases I don’t require much GPU, as I mostly use the windows VM to research vulns on software, some debugging and some powershell
Maybe its a config thing? QEMU is powerfully but less friendly to configure properly
If you enable KVM and GPU pass-through performance should be good, try to checkout this guide

how intregetd host nvidia to vm with kvm/qemu ?

[@hexdump1337]

Sorry but I rarely use VM with GPU, also nvidia support in linux is always kinda meh sadly

how do use this in my windows laptop

[@hexdump1337]

I believe you can use QEMU on windows, although I never tried personally.
