Nested Virtualization Of Hyper-V 2K8R2

[Jim <jim@suresafe.co.uk>]

Hi,

I've worked with KVM for quite a while now but have come across a 
problem when trying to run some W2K8R2 VMs where I want to also run 
Hyper-V on those VMs - nested virtualization.

I've researched and checked the obvious AMD processor with the enable 
nested flag, running a kvm guest with the nesting support enabled etc. 
which did allow me to add the Hyper-V role to the VM but when it 
reboots, the machine hardware lists a problem with the VM machine bus 
and no hyper-v VMs can be created.

 From what I've read through from lurking on the list and reading the 
archives, I'm not sure whether the problem is that KVM is not ready to 
support Hyper-V yet or if I'm doing it wrong.

I'd be very thankful if someone could say if I'm hoping for too much 
right now or point me where to go to find some details on what I'm  
doing wrong and how to do it right.

Thanks
Jim
