Oh, thanks ! That's right, nested virtualization was not enabled by default, setting nested=1 to kvm_intel did it. :) for the tests: + install the update + create a new disk image (qcow + raw img), start debian installer, various archs, convert between formats + boot a few official test images, FreeDOS, minimal NetBSD, Aurelien's Debian images for amd64[0] + test with different memory parameters, cpu number, with and without kvm Seems fine to me.
