KVM autotest tip of the week - How to run KVM autotest tests on an existing guest image

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

Hi folks, a little later than expected, here are the docs that explain 
how to run KVM autotest tests on an existing guest image:

http://autotest.kernel.org/wiki/KVMAutotest/RunTestsExistingGuest

Since we are making adjustments on how to write and contribute new 
tests, writing a new test will be the next tip of the week. Please bear 
with us :) We'd love to hear your feedback on our docs.

Good work! Lucas

Autotest user maybe use the images that are not installed by Autotest,
but framework and some tests use special packages/setup/...
so we need to remind users to process their images before using them
in Autotest framework, they can reference our unattended files.

Thanks for explaining this - very useful for test development and
other ad-hoc testing :).
