Have you enabled VT in the BIOS? Sometimes you need to completely power off the computer (disconnect the power cable) after enabling VT in the BIOS, efore the VT setting gets enabled for real. Also, Xen can run PV guests without VT. Xen needs VT only for HVM guests (aka Windows). KVM needs VT for all guests. -- Pasi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
