Hello,
I installed Lubuntu as a guest OS and enabled Nested Virtualization on it, then tried to install Xen Hypervisor on my guest OS. When system booted then "dmesg" show me below log:

Is this an error that related to Xen?

Thank you.

No idea?

Nothing but the obvious: Xen is a type 1 hypervisor, and as such I wouldn't expect it to run inside a VM. There are special setups for Xen inside a VMware ESXi VM, where Xen does not use hardware virtualization, though.

Thank you.
Just for VMware ESXi? How can I sure my Xen working on VirtualBox?

I don't know, and Google is your friend. ;)

You could try to configure Xen the same way that it is configured when being run inside a VMware ESXi VM. The important aspect is that Xen must not try to use hardware virtualization.
