I would like know if it is allowed creating a package with a KVM virtual machine + Ubuntu as OS and sell this package. Is there any restriction due to copyright or fees to pay?

I would not modify anything on the KVM or Ubuntu (just add java & firefox), just add my scripts on Ubuntu for the customers. I saw that KVM's parts are licensed under various GNU licenses:

  • KVM kernel module: GPL v2
  • KVM user module: LGPL v2
  • QEMU virtual CPU core library (libqemu.a) and QEMU PC system emulator: LGPL
  • Linux user mode QEMU emulator: GPL
  • BIOS files (bios.bin, vgabios.bin and vgabios-cirrus.bin): LGPL v2 or later

And ubuntu with GNU GPL. Any idea?

Thanks for your feedback!
