This kernel is intended for kernel developers to use in simple virtual
machines. It contains only the device drivers necessary to use a
KVM virtual machine *without* device passthrough enabled. Common

are enabled. Only the network and graphics drivers for devices that qemu

very quickly. The configuration may change arbitrarily between builds.
This package contains only the base modules, required in all installs.
