I should first note that the previous “(not a) guide to virtualization” is definitely out of date. Some elements are alright, and I’m still running the same setup — just 5 years and multiple system upgrades later, but I don’t think it’s necessarily a good place to “start”. It was a good place for me to debug from.
I can more or less just start a VM by starting virt-manager. Only one pre-requisite: start networking. I do this with virsh net-start --network default.
