+# virt-install-cloud
+Easily create a KVM virtual machine using virt-install, xorriso, and cloud init.
+
+## Who Originally Created This?
+The original creator is Claude Durocher and the repo is [here](https://github.com/clauded/virt-tools).
+
+I heavily modified the script breaking it out into multiple chunks and cleaning up some of the features and options to make it a bit more flexible and usable in my situation.
+
+## How Does The Script Work?
+Short story:
+
+> virt-install-cloud.sh hostname domain disk-size ramsize
+
+Long Story:
+
+You'll need to edit the virt-install-cloud.sh script to change disk pool locations, as well as various other variables for networking bridges, etc.  You'll also need to edit user-data and meta-data and make the appropriate changes there.
