.CW
vm "$USER" {
    owner $USER
    memory 2048M
    cdrom "/home/$USER/$USER.iso"
    disk /home/$USER/$USER.qcow2 
    interface {
        locked lladdr aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff
        switch "switch0"

Create a user account and make sure to set the folder as go-rx: 

$ doas su $USER
$ doas chmod -R go-rx /home/$USER

$ vmctl create -s 20G $USER.qcow2

Then log out of the user with ^D, then as admin user in group wheel:

$ vmctl start -c $USER
host# vmctl start -c jrmu
