zypper ar -r http://download.suse.de/ibs/Devel:/Virt:/SLE-12-SP2/SUSE_SLE-12-SP2_Update_standard/Devel:Virt:SLE-12-SP2.repo
zypper in qemu-ipxe qemu-vgabios

modprobe kvm_hv

And additionally as documented in #33181 it seems chmod 666 /dev/kvm is necessary as a temporary measure or a corresponding static udev rule.

When you say it's "wrong", you mean … what exactly? Or do you think it was never done properly and osukup fixes it with https://gitlab.suse.de/openqa/salt-states-openqa/merge_requests/32 ?

I don't remember exactly what went wrong - either kernel updates wouldn't update the initrd or grub wouldn't boot at all.

Picking after Oli's work... since workers have different configuration, just want to make sure that they all share the same thing.

Hmm... All of the serial consoles seem to be the same... or at least to be overriden,

Setting to feedback for the time being... Not sure if to address the serial consoles atm... (Probably install a new machine and see what happens? :D)
