::Pretty much any OS- KVM provides the guest OS with a fairly vanilla PC (via QEMU's I/O module) that pretty much any PC OS can run on:

:i440FX host PCI bridge, PIIX3 PCI to ISA bridge, Cirrus CLGD 5446 PCI VGA card or dummy VGA card with Bochs VESA extensions, PS/2 mouse and keyboard, 2 PCI IDE interfaces with hard disk and CD-ROM support, (opt) Floppy disk, zero or more NE2000 PCI network adapters, Serial ports, (opt) Creative SoundBlaster 16 sound card, (opt) ENSONIQ AudioPCI ES1370 sound card, (opt) Adlib(OPL2), (opt) Yamaha YM3812 compatible chip, PCI UHCI USB controller and a virtual USB hub, one or more CPUs, with SMP up to 255 CPUs. --[[User:Treekids|Treekids]] 14:36, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

::: As far as I can tell KVM is just a virtual box app. The word 'hypervisor' should not be used here, as it is a term from Xen; 'host' is more appropriate. A VTx CPU is required. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/220.240.250.7|220.240.250.7]] ([[User talk:220.240.250.7|talk]]) 02:20, 28 June 2016 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
