Convert OVA to qcow2

You have an .ova file (a packaged virtual machine file). We will open it up, grab the disk file inside, and turn it into a qcow2 format that UTM loves. This is the most common path!

Convert VMDK to qcow2

You already have a .vmdk disk file (from VMware or VirtualBox). We will convert it directly into a qcow2 file so UTM can use it without any trouble.

Import VMDK Directly into UTM

You have a .vmdk file and want to try importing it into UTM as-is without converting first. This is faster but may not always work. If it does not work, come back and try the conversion option above.
