[Users] Nested virt failing

I have Fedora 18 with ovirt running. I have vdsm-hook-nestedvt.noarch
installed on all the nodes.

The nodes are all identical with Intel i5-2400 CPUs (SandyBridge).

When I try to boot a nested virtual machine (L2) instead of a ovirt
virtual machine (L1), the kernel starts to load, and then that nested
virtual machines (L2) pauses.

On the host running Fedora 18 dmesg shows this message:

nested_vmx_run: VMCS MSR_{LOAD,STORE} unsupported

Reading this bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=892240

It looks like if the Fedora 18 ovirt nodes started the the L1 using
the "core2duo" CPU flag instead of host pass through it might work?

How do I do that, or are there other solutions?

TIA,
Dax Kelson
