Installing eve-ng on ubuntu 24.04 on BareMetal server.

While eve-ng can be installed on vmware workstation, esxi, proxmox its a nested virtualization, I have experienced large labs crashing. So I wanted to install eve-ng on baremetal to get to run it as type 1 hypervisor.

eve-ng under the hood uses a customized version kvm, qemu to run VM’s, we will dig deeper into it in coming sessions.

1. I have a baremetal on cloud, with ubuntu 24.04 installed on it
