[libvirt-users] virt-install: "ERROR Host does not support any virtualization options"
Hello,
I have a problem with virt-install. I want to use it to create my vm and
manage them. But whenever I execute the virt-install cmd I get the error
msg mentioned in the subject.
Here are some more informations:

I have no clue what is going on. I have kvm compiled into my kernel.
Normal "kvm" commands are working. Intel VT is enabled in the bios.
Any thoughts on this one?
Kind regards,
