=head1 Cloning a virtual machine
The guestfish technique described in the link below works well for
most Linux VMs. Depending on the Linux distro you may need to change
the paths slightly.
Use a combination of tools like L<cp(1)>, L<dd(1)>, and
virt tools like L<virt-sysprep(1)>, L<virt-sparsify(1)>
and L<virt-resize(1)>.

Avoid L<virt-clone(1)>. Currently what to do about virt-clone is
under discussion.
