Pa-vm-kvm-9.0.1.qcow2

Manual command-line deployment gives you the most control:

virt-install --name Pa-VM-901 \
  --ram 4096 --vcpus 2 \
  --disk path=/var/lib/libvirt/images/Pa-vm-kvm-9.0.1.qcow2,format=qcow2 \
  --import \
  --network bridge=br0,model=virtio \
  --graphics vnc \
  --os-variant generic
