I built the world and recompiled with revision 430 and I can start 32-bit VM
without VT-x selected. I do not have a system crash anymore.

I still cannot start 32-bit nor 64-bit VM while VT-x is checked. I got an
error message. I have read it's not supported and the opposite throughout
different threads.

Can anybody confirm what is really supported at the moment?

- 32-bit VM without VT-x ? OK for me
- 32-bit VM with VT-x?
- 64-bit VM with VT-x ?

Thanks,

Boris
