Hi, I don't know if that already exists somewhere ... I've written it for me and wanted to share it with you. It's minimal kvm shell for end users - it allows them to start/stop/reboot their own kvm guests. http://www.michael-kress.de/2009/12/kvm-shell/ kvm-shell should run on all platforms. Have fun.
