Those discussions are pretty old, and no longer apply to the current situation. nestedhvm=1 is a parameter set at the VM level. It need not be set to get nested virtualization in Qubes4.0 I regularly run Qubes nested, both Live images and installed HVMs, and it requires no special parameter setting. Both Live and installed work out of the box - there's certainly nothing disabled. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
