In this talk, we’ll introduce virtme-ng, a tool used to easily test a Linux kernel on a virtual machine.

You can compile your own kernel and use your system’s root filesystem — but you can also use a prebuilt Ubuntu kernel along with its rootfs.

Similar support for Debian is in the works, which will also be covered in this presentation.
