With all the changes in F11, I'm trying to set up a Windows XP virtual
machine with kvm/qemu. But not joy:
virt-install
ERROR Host does not support any virtualization options
but /proc/cpuinfo shows svm (this is AMD).
What am I missing?
is the kvm-amd module loaded?
lsmod | grep kvm should show it.
if not try to load it by doing modprobe kvm-amd
Yes it is:
lsmod | grep kvm
kvm_amd 30940 3
kvm 153112 1 kvm_amd
The problem was that not enough of the qemu stack was installed. I
had qemu-common, qemu-x86, qemu-system-x86 installed by yum. I'd
assumed they pull in whatever was necessary. Silly me. Installed all
qemu, now I get the new machine box.
hang on ... so which qemu-related package was missing? i'm thinking
qemu-user but it would be nice to clarify that.

I don't know. I'd first done yum groupinstall virtualization. As I
remember, that only brought in qemu-img. When that didn't work I
installed qemu*x86. I may have installed qemu-user also. Finally yum
install qemu*. Then it worked.
Any clues on paravirtualization?

I probably found the reason installing qemu*86 is not enough:
