Public bug reported:
I am trying to create a new virtual machine with Virtual Machine Manager
but keep receiving this error "Unable to complete install: 'Couldn't
find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree". The OS guest I am trying to install on
the VM is Ubuntu server 14.04.4, 64 bit. The host OS (where the virtual
manager is installed) is KUbuntu 16.04 .
Below is the full message that appears after completing the 5-steps VM
creation process and clicking on finish on virt-manager:
Unable to complete install: 'Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree.'
Traceback (most recent call last):

Description: desktop application for managing virtual machines
It presents a summary view of running domains and their live performance &
resource utilization statistics. A detailed view presents graphs showing
performance & utilization over time. Ultimately it will allow creation of new
domains, and configuration & adjustment of a domain's resource allocation &
virtual hardware. Finally an embedded VNC client viewer presents a full
graphical console to the guest domain.

According to this discussion http://askubuntu.com/a/815056 on
Askubuntu.com, it is matter of an issue with the installer (virt-install
looking for i386 installer but should be looking for amd64 installer).
The bug is reportedly fixed on upstream, but not available yet for the
packages.
