While following the tutorial example, "vm launch kvm test" is not working

Using prebuilt minimega-2.7.tar.bz2 on Ubuntu 20.04 (installed on VirtualBox). I followed the instruction here. When I try to launch the test VM, I get the following error:

2022/04/20 14:17:36 ERROR vm.go:744: vm 0: unable to connect to qmp socket: qmp timeout
2022/04/20 14:17:36 ERROR vm.go:744: vm 0: qemu killed: exit status 1 qemu-system-x86_64: -qmp unix:/tmp/minimega/0/qmp,server: info: QEMU waiting for connection on: disconnected:unix:/tmp/minimega/0/qmp,server

You need to enable features for nested virtualization. I bet if you run these commands they'll error.

modprobe kvm
modprobe kvm_intel

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/using-nested-virtualization-in-kvm/ try: https://docs.oracle.com/en/virtualization/virtualbox/6.0/admin/nested-virt.html

On vmware workstation you just need to check the box to virtualize intel vt-x/amd-v

@sahabulh I'm going to go ahead and close this as there haven't been any updates. Feel free to reopen or create a new issue if needed!
