When trying to install Radeon crimson relive 16.12.1, each host machine freezes at the machine environment check stage.
Even if you launch the installer in an environment where GPU is not installed, each host machine freezes in the same way.
When Gusest's CPU is changed from 4 to 1, the environment check is completed normally.
Even if FMA and AVX 2 are invalidated by CPU setting, environment check will be completed normally.
Since 1 CPU does not freeze, I thought that it would be better to fix the CPU, but I will still freeze.
Is it impossible to enable the function of AVX 2 (FMA?) In the virtual machine on KVM?
