qemu 规范路径,qemu KVM内核模块没有这样的文件或目录

I am currently taking an operating systems class and I need to use qemu to run a small operating system that my professor provided. I am trying to use qemu within an ubuntu 12.04 virtual machine on virtualbox on my macbook air 5.2. I know the problems I am having probably have to do with nested virtualization but the specific error I get when I try to run qemu is:

Could not access the KVM kernel module: No such file or directory

failed to initialize KVM: no such file or directory

Back to tcg accelerator.

qemu does start up the os but the window flickers quite a lot and I would like to fix the KVM problem if possible. I've done research but I can't find a solution I can understand or that works so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also for the ubuntu virtual machine in virtualbox I have both Enable VT-x/AMD-V and Enable Nested Paging checked under Hardware Virtualization. I've also tried using

modprobe kvm-intel

and I get this error:

FATAL: Error inserting kvm_intel (/lib/modules.3.5.0-22-generic/kernel/arch/x86/kvm/kvm-intel.ko): Operation not permitted.

解决方案

Try with sudo modprobe kvm-intel.

In order to have the module automatically loaded at the startup of the virtual machine, do the following:

Edit the corresponding file from the shell with sudo vim /etc/modules.conf

Possibly enter your username password.

Press the key G to go to the end of the document and then o to begin inserting.

Write kvm-intel and press Enter, producing a new line.

Press Esc to return to the Normal mode of vim. "--INSERT--" will disappear from

the bottom.

Save the file and exit vim by writing :wq.

You are done. Try to reboot and load the nested virtual machine.
