This container is made for KVM. On most systems it will also run without KVM (but not on yours apparantly).

But even if it would run, it would be useless for any real purpose, because it will be very slow without the hardware acceleration. So Im not sure if its worth the effort to figure out what is going wrong, when I already know you will never going to use it even if we fix it.

Is there a reason why your VM has no KVM support? On most systems you can enable "nested virtualization" to have KVM inside the VM.
