I also built qemu-kvm-0.12.2 using above kernel headers etc. I enabled virtualization in BIOS. I didn't try to install any guest from CD etc. I made a hard disk image, installed grub on it, copied kernel, initrd onto it. Now when I try to create Vm as below, it crashes with following backtrace. What could be going wrong?

What's your Linux distribution? First trace bellow shows that ptheard_create()
failed which is strange. What ulimit -a shows?
