KVM (Linux)
See: KVM HowTos, for information on running KVM on your host machine.
From the command line:
1. Change directory to the location of KVM image
cd /path/to/image/ubuntu-kvm/
2. start kvm ica-atom instance (-m sets the memory in MB in this case 256MB, -redir tells the host machine to direct port 8000 to 80 on the guest instance)
sudo kvm -m 256 -redir tcp:8000::80 disk0.qcow2
3. wait until the machine is completely booted(you will see ubuntu shell login)
4. ica-atom is now reachable at http://localhost:8000
