B<debvm-run> is essentially a thin wrapper around B<qemu> for running a virtual machine image created by B<debvm-create> or something compatible.
The virtual machine image is expected to be a raw ext4 image with file system label B<debvm>.
The architecture of the machine is detected from the contained F</bin/true>.
-It must contain a symbolic link pointing to a kernel image at F</vmlinuz> or F</vmlinux> depending on the architecture and a symbolic link pointing to an initrd image at F</initrd.img>.
+It must contain a symbolic link pointing to a kernel image at F<(|/boot)/vmlinu[xz]> depending on the architecture and a symbolic link pointing to an initrd image at F</initrd.img>.
Both are extracted and passed to B<qemu>.
A net interface configured for user mode is added automatically.
