12 | Say Y here to get to see options for using your Linux host to run other |
13 | operating systems inside virtual machines (guests). | |

14 | This option alone does not add any kernel code. |

29 | Support hosting fully virtualized guest machines using hardware | |
30 | virtualization extensions. You will need a fairly recent | |
31 | processor equipped with virtualization extensions. You will also | |
32 | need to select one or more of the processor modules below. | |
33 | ||
34 | This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through | |
35 | a character device node named /dev/kvm. | |
36 | ||
37 | To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module | |
38 | will be called kvm. | |
39 | ||
40 | If unsure, say N. | |
