Good day.
I have a machine with Windows 10 and VirtualBox installed.
I want to set up two virtual machines with CentOS+KVM on this machine.
Will I get it? Maybe VirtualBox has some plugins that will allow me to implement this?
I understand that what I want should not be used in "combat" conditions, but it will not be used there. I just need to try out a few things before I roll out CentOS+KVM on real hardware.
CPU i5 8300
OS Windows 10 Pro

At the moment, this only works with Intel VT, but in theory, by the release of Windows Server 2016, it should also work for AMD-V.

I did not understand why to invest one virtualka in another. Why can't they run in parallel?
