Verify virtualisation support (linux) - returns blank despite Virtualbox installed
Hello,
I am on lesson 7, I am trying to setup Minikube on a VM with an image Ubutunu 24.04. Note that VM meets minimum requirements specified for Minikube.
After successfully downloading and installing Virtualbox, I runn the following command on the terminal, but it keeps on returning no result.
I wonder what I am doing wrong.
I would appreciate if someone could shed some light. Thank you.

Hi @josepmaria,
It seems you have deviated from the intended installation approach, and are trying to install Minikube on a Virtual Machine. When doing so nested virtualization needs to be supported by the host machine (enabled in BIOS if necessary) and the VM as well through hypervisor configuration. Nested virtualization is not supported by all native OSes and by all workstation hardware.
This is why the course explicitly recommends that Minikube be installed directly on the native OS of the workstation - macOS, Windows, or a Linux distribution.

I have also installed extension pack
and if I run the command "virtualbox" it opens "virtualbox"
I wonder what is the output I should get when executing command below
$ grep -E --color 'vmx|svm' /proc/cpuinfo
Thank you

Hello @chrispokorni,
Many thanks for your quick answer, I appreciate it.
You are right, I was attempting to install kubernetes on a Linux VM. I had not read the course instructions carefully and thought I had to install it on a VM. My mistake.
Thanks to your answer and course guidance, I have been able to successfuly install Minikube on macOS with VMware as isolation software.
Once again, thanks for your time and great courses.
Sincerley,
Josep Maria
