Usage:
to get some help;
vm-start --help
to list all vm already configured
vm-start --list
to create a new vm
vm-start <nom_de_la_vm> create --create_disk=<location_of_iso_file>
you can of course add options like --uefi to tun in uefi mode, or --nproc=<nb_proc> to select a number of processors.
If you go to the conf folder created the first time you launch the script, you will find all configured variables for each of your vm.
