+# A simple script to run a VM that was (probably) generated using the
+# gen-vm script. Note that to pass in a host filesystem you need to
+# run something like:
+#
+# sudo mount -t 9p -o trans=virtio hostfs /home/batesste/Projects -oversion=9p2000.L
+#
+# In the guest. For some reason -t virtfs does not work when running
+# qemu directly but it does work when running via libvirt. Go figure!
