This deployment assumes you are working from a Linux CLI terminal using virt-install and qemu-img . Step 1: Prepare the Image Directory

Once the VM boots successfully, access the local console via virsh console or your VNC/Spice viewer to run the initial setup wizard. Default Credentials admin Password: (Leave blank / Press Enter)

For production environments, always:

Proactively verify your hypervisor host has ample RAM available before scaling out multiple instances of this image in sandbox environments. If you are planning a deployment, let me know:

For production environments, you must upload a valid file purchased from a Fortinet partner. Security Note

FortiGate requires an additional workspace disk alongside the primary OS boot image. Create a secondary 30 GB virtual storage drive using the following command: qemu-img create -f qcow2 fgt-logs.qcow2 30G Use code with caution. 3.
