Re: [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: hp ~ # virt-install --virt-type kvm --arch x86_64 --debug Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:57:29 DEBUG Launched with command line: /usr/bin/virt-install --virt-type kvm --arch x86_64 --debug Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:57:29 DEBUG Requesting libvirt URI default Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:57:29 DEBUG Received libvirt URI qemu:///system Mon, 06 Feb 2012 19:57:29 DEBUG Requesting virt method 'default', hv type 'kvm'.

I have kvm compiled into my kernel. Normal "kvm" commands are working. Intel VT is enabled in the bios. Any thoughts on this one?
