Linux Template Optimization

Leverage virtualization-specific kernels

Implement the  linux-image-kvm kernel, which is specifically engineered to support KVM virtualization workloads.

For instance, within an Ubuntu environment, proceed with the following sequence:

apt install linux-image-kvm
apt purge linux-image-generic

Pre-publish sanitization

# removes logs
journalctl --vacuum-size=1
# removes user history
history -c

(as root) rm /root/.bash_history
