Well, I got it to build, I installed the kernel source, and off it
went, the only
thing that I have to deal with now is it asked me for a serial number at the
end of the build, I did not have one (it said it was a demo) so since I just
gave it a [ENTER] it gave out a message saying all had been installed just
fine, but I would not be able to run a VM until I give it a serial number.
