Hi,

installing elbe v6, I got the following error on a debian 9.8 host
during of initvm creation.

Requesting system reboot
[  981.447367] reboot: Restarting system
mkdir -p .stamps
touch .stamps/stamp-install-initial-image
libvirt: QEMU Driver error : internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: Could not access KVM kernel

Giving up

The current user is member of the libvirt group.

Any idea ?
