Re: Problem with Grub and KVM 88

[Erik Wartusch <e.wartusch@mitacs.com>]

I downloaded the tar.gz
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/kvm/kvm-88.tar.gz?use_mirror=dfn

unzipped it and followed the procedure according to the how to:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/kvm 
make 
make install 
modprobe kvm-intel
