Cloud Hypervisor also supports direct kernel boot into a `vmlinux` ELF kernel (compiled with PVH support). In order to support development there is a custom branch; however provided the required options are enabled any recent kernel will suffice. Cloud Hypervisor also supports direct kernel boot.

## Direct-kernel booting
Alternativelly, you can build your own kernel for guest VM. This way, UEFI is
not involved and ACPI cannot be enabled.
### Building kernel
```bash
$ pushd $CLOUDH
$ git clone --depth 1 "https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/linux.git" -b ch-5.12
