Mark - Thanks for the info re Fedora 31/Debian 10 and VirtIO. Very much appreciated.

I used Fedora 31 to create it and this time, it successfully booted into the Live DVD and also with a subsequent installation to the VM. Although when it boots up each time, I am seeing a window that the X server failed to start, but it eventually starts and brings me to the login screen.

In regards to Jerry's question regarding my adding the USB hardware, using virt-manager: when creating the VM, on the screen 'Create a new virtual machine' (Step 5 of 5), there is a checkbox labeled 'Customize configuration before install'. Checking this box will take you to another screen that lists all of the items on the left that will be installed by default, there is a button at the bottom of that window 'Add Hardware', select that. The next screen lists the hardware that can be added. The USB items (Bluetooth, printer, mouse, etc.) are on USB Host Device. Click on one of them, then click Finish, that adds it to the list on the left. This last step is repeated for each USB device you want to add to the VM.

I uploaded an image of it running in my KVM window.

The Video QXL driver seems like its weird. Select VirtIO instead by
clicking the "Customize installation configuration" box before you create
the VM.

Also, don't use generic, use fedora31 or debian 10 as the base.
