Hi!
Need some help here installing kvm. I'm following instructions at [1].
Seems that my system does not support hardware virtualization.
$ egrep '^flags.*(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
Command above reveals nothing. Anyway, I would like to use it for android
x86 emulator only.
All necessary packages are installed. However trying to start libvirtd
reveals:
$ systemctl -l status libvirtd

And $ lsmod | grep kvm shows nothing. How do I fix it? What steps should I
take now?
TIA
