Thanks Nux for your reply. I have tried doing the search and all these packages are installed: ======================================= N/S matched: kvm ======================================= libvirt-daemon-kvm.x86_64 : Server side daemon & driver required to run KVM guests qemu-kvm-tools.x86_64 : KVM debugging and diagnostics tools qemu-kvm.x86_64 : QEMU is a FAST! processor emulator qemu-kvm-common.x86_64 : QEMU common files needed by all QEMU targets Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything. [root at acer-centos keith.roberts]# [root at acer-centos keith.roberts]# yum install *kvm* Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.econdc.com * extras: centos.serverspace.co.uk * updates: repo.bigstepcloud.com Package 10:qemu-kvm-common-1.5.3-86.el7_1.2.x86_64 already installed and latest version Package 10:qemu-kvm-1.5.3-86.el7_1.2.x86_64 already installed and latest version Package libvirt-daemon-kvm-1.2.8-16.el7_1.3.x86_64 already installed and latest version Package 10:qemu-kvm-tools-1.5.3-86.el7_1.2.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do bash-3.2$ Yet when I go to create a new VM with VMM, I get the following error message: Warning: KVM is not available. This may mean the KVM package is not installed, or the KVM kernel modules are not loaded. Your virtual machines may perform poorly. So it’s the Kernel modules I’m looking for thankyou.
