<div>Hi All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have below architecture. I assume it does not support KVM. Please point me somone what is exactly needed to support KVM support in my machine?</div>

<div class="im">/proc/cpuinfo gives you information about your CPU and not about the<br>modules your kernel support.<br>If you don't have the right hardware, afaik you have to use a<br>different hypervisor.<br><br><br>
