# Post-installation configuration
After Phyllome OS [has been successfully installed](/deploy/install) and [its first-launch process completed](/deploy/install#first-launch), a few tasks are required before it can be used to its fullest potential.
> As Phyllome OS evolves, the following post-installation configuration will, hopefully, be made obsolete
{.is-info}
### Grant the current user the ability to manage system-based virtual machines
Any new user, including the one that has been created during the first-launch set up, won't be part of the `libvirt` group. It means that it won't be able to manage the *qemu:///system*, which runs `libvirt` as root.
To avoid a password prompt each time you connect to *qemu:///system*, you can add the current user to the `libvirt` by using the following command, in the terminal:
```
sudo usermod -a -G libvirt $(whoami)
```
> Phyllome OS will eventually switch to the *qemu:///session* URI, which doesn't require elevated privileges. Have a look at [this great blog post](https://blog.wikichoon.com/2016/01/qemusystem-vs-qemusession.html) to understand some of the differences between the *session* and the *system* URI.
{.is-info}
### Update GRUB and reboot
Unfortunately, the GRUB config won't correctly update during the kickstart phase, so it has to be done manually.
```
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
```
When the is done, please reboot: `sudo reboot`
### Modify the system allocated to the GPU in the BIOS/UEFI (vfio-mdev only)
> Some computers allow you to modify the system memory allocated or shared with the integrated GPU, which may allow you to create more vGPUs.
{.is-info}
> For Intel integrated graphics cards only; rarely available on laptops computers.
{.is-warning}
* Before the host operating system boots up, you need to enter the BIOS/UEFI and to look for a setting called *GPU aperture size*, or *GPU shared memory*.
* Use the highest possible value.
> System memory will be reserved for the GPU, so make sure you have enough system memory to accomodate both the GPU and your operating system.
