Proxmox Kernel does't have x86_64 kvm packages

[anoopkjayan]

Hi,

I installed proxmox on Debian Squeeze x86_64 . However while creating a vm I am
stuck with the message

[FONT=tahoma]Could not access KVM kernel module: No such file or directory
failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory
No accelerator found!

uname -a gives the following

Linux vms1 2.6.32-12-pve #1 SMP Tue May 15 06:02:20 CEST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux

It seems that the pve kernel doesn't contain kvm package for intel x86_64 platform.

Any help is appreciated.

 

[tom]

should work without problems, seems something is wrong on your side. post your 'pveversion -v'

 

[tom]

and enable VT in the bios! what physical CPU do you have?

 

[anoopkjayan]

Dear tom,

Thanks for your fast response.

pveversion -v

[tom]

software version is ok, seems your hardware does not have VT enabled. enable it in the bios.

 

[anoopkjayan]

I already enabled VT and showing vmx flag in /proc/cpuinfo

[tom]

what cpu do you use?

try poweroff, remove the power cord, wait a minute and power on again.
