In machine "A" KVM worked good. = This is a Feisty 7.04 32 bits with 2.6.20-16 Ubuntu standard kernel = with kvm installed apt way. The machine "B" is the one I have mentioned before and It's using a = 2.6.22 manually compiled kernel. It has been able to install only Debian = netinstall. I would like to know if there is some kind of issue with kvm = and this kernel or with AMD64.
