Now ensure that it is enabled. (typically from BIOS) Install KVM and management utilities like virt-manager from synaptic. Start Installing and managing other OS invoking, Applications --> System Tools --> Virtual Machine Manager http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-kvm-on-ubuntu-9.04 should be of help. -- ஆமாச்சு -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

But to run Windows the processor should support Virtualization. (Intel-VT or AMD-V) You can do it by giving this command. /$ egrep -e 'vmx|svm' /proc/cpuinfo/ If this returns something, then you can make use xen or kvm for running windows. -- ஆமாச்சு -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
