Could you build this?
Partial While basic QEMU/KVM automation scripts are vibe-codeable, building an unattended, self-installing Linux distribution appliance requires specialized OS imaging, kernel configuration, and virtualization knowledge.
What it would actually take: A working system requires custom Linux ISO build pipelines (such as archiso or mkosi), initramfs hooks, systemd service units, and automated QEMU/KVM virtualization scripts with virtio configurations. The hard part is managing non-interactive disk partitioning, bootloader installation (GRUB/systemd-boot), and handling edge cases across nested virtualization environments.
