Hello everyone, Jailhouse (x86) on ESXI Hypervisor (i.e., VMware) cannot work (in nested virtualization), *as the preemption timer is not emulated.* Instead, I have a question about Jailhouse images. I got a Jailhouse image for x86. Now, I am trying to run the image with the command "./*start_qemu x86*". Linux starts and boots fine. I checked the hardware features with "*jailhouse hardware check*", and I *passed* also the hardware checks. However, when I try to run "Jailhouse enable /etc/jailhouse/qemux96.cell",* I get the error "input/output error".* could you give me an explanation?
