### Purpose / Objectives of Lab 2

In this lab, you will create 3 virtual machines u virtualisation program called **KVM** that will run in your debhost system. These VMs will be used throughout the remainder of this course to learn how to administer them (installing software, managing services, networking, etc).
In this lab, you will create 3 virtual machines using a virtualization program called **KVM** that will run in your debhost system. These VMs will be used throughout the remainder of this course to learn how to administer them (installing software, managing services, networking, etc).

While you are performing this lab, it is recommended to generally note the major differences in the different installation methods, and which method you prefer to use if you were a Linux system administrator in charge of installing many Linux distributions for an organization.

**Main Objectives**

- Installing additional Virtualisation Software on your **debhost** machine (**KVM**)
- Installing additional Virtualization Software on your **debhost** machine (**KVM**)
- Create 3 separate VMs (virtual machines) using different installation methods:

- **deb1**: Network Debian Installation (**Graphical Desktop Environment**)

At the end of Lab 2, your hypervisor (VirtualBox or VMWare) application will contain **4 virtual machines** (**debhost** in your hypervisor application, and **deb1, deb2, deb3 VMs** in your **KVM** application). You will now have the option to run one virtual machine at a time, or run all machines simultaneously to learn about networking (covered in later labs)

### Part 1: Install KVM Virtualisation Application

We will now install the KVM package in order to create our remaining "nested" VMs. We will also be starting several services. We will learn more about managing firewalls in later labs.
