Dear Fellow Dev / Users,

I'm trying to figure out whether running libvirtd+qemu-kvm on Atomic server
make sense.

One of my CentOS 7 box (my homelab VM host) had been through interrupted OS
update twice and it required my intervention to become bootable again in
both instances. Atomic Server's ostree way of update seems to be a very
good way of avoiding these kind of troubles.

Based on my very basic research, it seems that there's an image for
libvirtd so I tried `atomic run hrishikesh/libvirtd` but it got error on
trying to do something with systemd. Then I noticed there's an official
systemd image from CentOS so I tried `atomic run centos/systemd` which
failed similarly.

Researching from there it seems that the official docker does not support
running systemd inside a container but Red Hat's podman do? However Atomic
Server provides docker…

So my questions are:

   1. Whether this libvirt+qemu-kvm on atomic use case make sense?
   2. If it does, any pointers on getting this up and running?


Thanks & regards,
Angelos
