To install Virtualizor, follow these steps:

Open a Shell Terminal (e.g. PuTTY) and SSH to your server.

Run the following commands:

#wget -N http://files.virtualizor.com/install.sh

# ./install.sh email=your@email.com kernel=kvm

Installation Parameters
Please ensure that you provide the correct email address when running the installation command.

noos (optional): Add this parameter if you don’t want to download the OS template for the VPS

beta (optional): Add this parameter if you want to test a newer version of Virtualizor

nested_virt (optional): Add this parameter if you want to enable Nested Virtualization on your server

lvg (optional): If you are using LVM for VPS storage, specify the Volume Group to be used
