Hi,
It seems SVM is currently only supported with qemu 64bit
(qemu-system-x86_64). I am wondering why it doesn't support qemu
32bit??
Many thanks,
Jun

SVM is a feature of x86_64 processors. It's not present on i386
processors. You don't have to run 64-bit OSes with qemu-system-x86_64,
you can run 32-bit OSes.

Actually iirc it's also broken in 32-bit mode. This has to be
something really minor, but I didn't manage to find it yet.
