In this first log, we install BlackArch Linux directly using the 64-bit NetInstall ISO—but not the usual way.Instead of a standard install, we take full control through QEMU with PCIe passthrough, targeting a dedicated NVMe drive. The goal is simple: keep the install clean, isolated, and built for raw hardware access from day one.And here’s the key point—this isn’t just “BlackArch running inside a VM.” With this approach, BlackArch is installed in a way that it can also boot straight from that same NVMe as the host system, with no virtualization and no middle layers. The VM is only the tool—the result is a real, standalone system.
