<br>
<br>
but I am still unable to start a kvm VM. I checked the boot process and noticed the kvm_amd module not being loaded. I googled this and found it is normally when virtualization is disabled in bios as is checked by the absence of vmx/svm in cpuinfo. None of this seems to be correct , as you can see svm is in cpuinfo<br>
<br>
egrep '(vmx|svm)' --color=always /proc/cpuinfo<br>
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt rdtscp lm 3dnowext 3dnow rep_good extd_apicid pni cx16 lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy 3dnowprefetch lbrv<br>

<br>
modprobe -vv kvm_amd<br>
insmod /lib/modules/2.6.32-11-pve/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd.ko<br>
FATAL: Error inserting kvm_amd (/lib/modules/2.6.32-11-pve/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd.ko): Operation not supported<br>
<br>
What else can I check , the machine has been powered off , cable unplugged so its not a rebooting issue.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
