4. 4. Adding User to Group

   Next Add User to libvirt Group
   First, you need to Make the Group:

   sudo addgroup libvirtd

   And then Add User with:

   sudo adduser `id -un` libvirtd

   This because only the Users of this Group can Run Virtual Machines.
   Then Relogin to Enable this Setup!

5. 5. Verifing KVM Installation

   Finally, Test Installation.

   Simply performing:

   virsh list --all

   And in the Output you should find:

    Id    Name                           State

   This because still no VMs has been made.
