Hello Tails Development Team I was going through some of the documentation regarding building[1] "Tails" distribution. I have hit a wall regarding continuing the build beyond making sure there is a sane development environment with the right set of tools.
The problem I face is with respect to the KVM. Since I do not have direct access to a bare-metal server / a server which runs Xen Hypervisor capable of running a domU with Debian / a Linux VM with nested virtualization support where I can do the build via vagrant-libvirt using KVM back-end. The builds fail with a call to "virDomainCreateWithFlags". I have access to VirtualBox but looking up online that is not sufficient enough to do VT-d/VT-x passthrough to my guest Linux. My bare-metal machine is not equipped to handle builds like Tails. I also do not mind Vagrant[2] trying use a different back-end like Qemu without KVM if needed to do the builds, but I am not aware of how to do this in the current setup. Looking for suggestions or pointers or documentation for getting this build working without too much hassle. Thank you References 1. https://tails.boum.org/contribute/build/ 2. https://tails.boum.org/contribute/build/vagrant-setup/ Regards Santhosh
