Hi

I want to start a qemu vm in the background. The guest is windows and When I use -nographic or -curses, it seems that the terminal which I run the qemu command won't get free.

I have installed anydesk on the guest and there is no need to see the qemu guest window at the moment. I also tried -daemonize where I can see the return to the terminal prompt, but the guest window is shown and when I close it, the guest vm is killed.

What should I do then?
