Kimsufi mega fail + Maybe some Helps!??

Gentlemen and perhaps some unlucky/Sexy lady(s)

This guy has walked into the mega fail door and doesn't know where to go. I hate posting in forums because I can usually google myself out of most situations but this just isn't one of them.

I am attempting to install an iso as my operating system as part of the kimsufi mega sale that came up today. I would like a vanilla Ubuntu install with the following iso:
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/xenial-updates/main/installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso

I am following a guide posted here:
https://trick77.com/how-to-set-up-virtual-kvm-vnc-console-ovh-server/

Looks like a pretty sweet and east to follow guide until BAM!!
/tmp/qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic -net user,hostfwd=tcp::80-:80,hostfwd=tcp::443-:443 -m 1024M -localtime -enable-kvm -hda /dev/sda -hdb /dev/sdb -hdd /dev/sdc -vnc 127.0.0.1:0 -cdrom /tmp/mini.iso -boot d

It's like a face palm full of fail!!!!

I get Could not access KVM kernel module: No such file or directory
failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory

Which makes sense because when I run /tmp/kvm-ok
I GET

INFO: Your CPU does not support KVM extensions
KVM acceleration can NOT be used

I thought running qemu would allow me to mount my super sweet (but soul crushing boring) iso image as its supposed to be a super kvm atom smashing monster. (even though kvm-ok says otherwise which was so confusing other guides suggest that this can be done on an atom cpu)

I would very much like to install my own OS in my newly purchased Kimsufi flash sale server. Any help you gentlemen (and did I say very sexy ladies) (no serious soooo good) could offer would be appreciated.

Thank you in every language that showed up in google without any effort!!!

    If it's beyond your skill level, just install a distro provided by the OVH install system. They do provide both Ubuntu 16.04 and 16.10. The N2800 Atom does not support the hardware virtualization indeed. You try removing "-enable-kvm" for an order of magnitude slower process, but it would likely at least start. Oh and please stop writing like a retard, your entire post is seriously facepalm-inducing.

    You can still launch qemu without KVM acceleration, but it will take a very long time to load.

    Or you can do an installation from the rescue system itself. Quick googling turned up this article

    my post was meant to read as if a retard were writing it because that is how I felt (feel). I do however appreciate your response and guidance.

    @exception0x876 thank you as well.

  • Am I going about it the wrong way? Is there a guide or a simple way to install the os of choice if it is not available as a template install for these atom machines that lack kvm virtualization?

    If all you want is to have a vanilla Ubuntu why not reboot the server in the rescue console and then do a little debootstrab magic.
