Hi,

Sorry for the late reply.

I guess you need to enable KVM on your host distribution.  On default
Debian, I am running something like:

    1. Check if =/dev/kvm= is there: =ls -l /dev/kvm=
    2. Add the user to the KVM group
       #+begin_src shell
         sudo usermod -a -G kvm <user>
         newgrp kvm
       #+end_src
    3. If it does not work, then try:
       #+begin_src shell
         sudo chmod 777 /dev/kvm
       #+end_src

Once KVM is enable, do you have still the same issue?

Cheers,
simon
