* **Improvements**
+ * qemu: Change default machine type for aarch64 and riscv64 + + It is nearly impossible to create a working VM using the current default + machine types. Change the aarch64 default from ``integratorcp`` to ``virt`` + and the riscv64 default from ``spike_v1.10`` to ``virt``.
I would suggest rewording this along the lines of * qemu: Change default machine type for Arm and RISC-V Arm and RISC-V architectures now use the ``virt`` machine type by default. The previous defaults were nearly unusable and had to be overridden in most cases. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
