This sounds like you're just looking for *some* way to run a VM.  Forgive
me if you've been asked before, but why not use the solution built in to
Fedora? QEMU/KVM do a great job and using virt-manager  or GNOME Boxes is
easy.

I can point you to some documentation or help in a dedicated thread if you
are interested.
