Conflict with HP RGS solved

The conflict with HP RGS was solved by shutting down the host. Rebooting the guest was not enough. But at least, I can test my spice streaming agent again.

Multi-booting Turbo

I want to setup a second Linux partition on Turbo that would boot with the NVIDIA card attached to the host (e.g. for virgl testing) rather than to the guest. That seems somewhat problematic. The Fedora 26 installer hangs at boot time. I think it does not support the NVIDIA M2000 card out of the box. Time to download a more recent version of Fedora.

Interestingly, I noticed for the first time that the Fedora project was now offering a "Media Writer" for macOS. Basically a glorified / GUI-fied version of dd, I guess.
