Confusion about VM installation step #1

Are there any requirements for the iso file used when installing VM with the virt-install command? Do I still use the ubuntu 18.04 iso file?

Originally, Ubuntu 18.04 was used as the Host OS to test this fuzzer. Using Ubuntu 22.04 may work but it may need some adjustments within the Requirements.sh. The VMs used to do the actual fuzzing (creation of filesystems as well as the mounting + accessing corrupted file systems) don't have to be Ubuntu. I was testing OpenBSD, NetBSD, and FreeBSD at the time. If you want to test Ubuntu filesystems you would use a Ubuntu based iso file for that :). Hope that clarifies things!
