Start KVM guest headless

I am wondering to how to start a KVM guest OS headless, ie, no monitoring window? And I can attach to the guest's console if I want to.

Simon

-vnc <displaynum>

Read about the '-vnc' option to start it headless, and connect with a VNC client to see graphical console. Or use -serial and configure the guest OS to have a serial console login.

Regards,
Daniel

Start the guest with -vnc :<NUM> -daemonize

Connect to the guest later with vncviewer :<NUM>

Cheers,
