Thanks Avi for the rhel-5.2.patch. I was able to successfully apply it to kvm-70. In addition I found myself having to make one more small modification for RHEL 5.2
I found myself also having to modify the kernel/external-module-compat.h at line 670 (as per emails from Andrea Arcangeli on June 18th) and change #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,19) && defined(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) to #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,17) && defined(CONFIG_KALLSYMS) So now I can successfully build KVM-70 on RHEL 5.2 for the AMD-V, and load the modules in the kernel (2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lsmod | grep kvm [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe kvm [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# modprobe kvm_amd [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# lsmod | grep kvm kvm_amd 62888 0 kvm 178416 1 kvm_amd [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# The only thing that I seem to be halting my progression right now is that I cannot find the qemu-kvm helper program.

Should I stop looking for a qemu-kvm ? Thanks for any pointers.
