2. Pre-Installation Checks
Then Ascertain that KVM Can be Installed
egrep -c '(vmx|svm)' /proc/cpuinfo
If in Output > 0 then your Processor support Hardware Virtualization!
(But on a PC you may have still to enable it on BIOS…)
Now again, first Install needed Tool with:sudo apt install cpu-checker
And then Verify it:
kvm-ok
If it’s Good you will see:
INFO: /dev/kvm exists KVM acceleration can be used
Finally, if the answer is negative you can still use KVM but only in a Slow mode…
