Brad, thanks a million! Learning is fun especially for a "apt install"
man as I am.
I am looking now at how I can simplify all this (may be stripping parts
of QEMU too?), to keep running, and handle my configurations and
resources binding.
In the end, all what I need is executing in isolated ring the ELF of
dozen of (not trusted) proxies, servers and libraries + resources
balancing + isolated filesystems + sockets.

From the other side, I think that the Type 1 hypervisor for desktop is
also interesting thing, It's very tempting to have windowed multimachine
with realtime switch capability.
