1. Check whether it's already turned on
Run this and look for vmx on Intel or svm on AMD:
grep -E -m1 'vmx|svm' /proc/cpuinfoIf you see a match, virtualization is already on and you can run Regulus.
2. Turn it on in your firmware
Reboot into your UEFI or BIOS settings and enable one of these, usually under CPU or Security:
- Intel: Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x)
- AMD: SVM Mode or AMD-V
3. Give Regulus access to KVM
Make sure the KVM device exists and that your user can open it:
ls -l /dev/kvm
