     You can recognize the Sonoff dongle at `Bus 003 Device 003`. So the command to install the VM will become:
 
     ```bash
-    virt-install --name hass --description "Home Assistant OS" --os-variant=generic --ram=2048 --vcpus=2 --disk <PATH TO QCOW2 FILE>,bus=sata --graphics none --boot uefi --hostdev 003.003

     ```
     Note that this configuration (bus 003, device 003) is just an example, your dongle could be on another bus and/or with another device ID. 
     Please check the correct IDs of your USB dongle with `lsusb`.
