Hello,
I'm trying to run linux guest in order to play with minikube.
I'm getting error saying I need to enable VT-x in the BIOS
in VirtualBox system window I see that "VT-x/AMD-V" is enabled for that guest.
inside guest I'm getting this error:
"This computer doesn't have VT-X/AMD-v enabled. Enabling it in the BIOS is mandatory"

HOST: MAC OSX 10.13.3
GUEST: Ubuntu Server 16.04.3
virtualbox 5.2.6
I also tryed 5.1.32 (same error)

please help
Thanks

You can't pass the VT-x capabilities of the host to a guest.
