I'm a little bit stumped why imvirt detects a HVM when there shouldn't be any.
imvirt reads the CPUID MSR 0x40000000 to identify the HVM - doing this on the bare metal shouldn't return anything. On my available Intel test machines (Q6600 & i7), imvirt didn't fail.
Could you try to run imvirt from a independent boot media? Regards, Thomas
