'''Obs''': ''format=raw'' is mandatory, otherwise qcow2 format will be used by default.
 +
''raw'' format allows us to easily create device mappings for the image.

The new VM will boot into the installer. Answer all questions with the defaults, except:
 +
 +
# Hostname: template-focal
 +
# Mirror: enter information manually
 +
# Mirror hostname: ubuntu.media.mit.edu
 +
# (create your user with a strong password and no encrypted home)
 +
# Partitioning: manual (see Partitioning below)
 +
# Automatically install security updates
 +
# Software selection:
 +
#* Basic Ubuntu Server
 +
#* OpenSSH server
 +
# GRUB: let the installer setup grub on /dev/vba (which contains /boot)
