[Bug 1208455] Re: general protection fault running apt-get inside double nested kvm VM

 

Btw, James, this means there is a simple but not very helpful work-
around for Saucy: use AMD CPU based hosts. Did not check for 32bit user-
space on 1rst level but with 64bit and had no issues. Not very
surprising as the regression seems to be in the nested VMX code. But
also not very useful when working in the cloud...
