The x86 VMM requires both vt-x and vt-d support. vt-x support is easy enough with qemu+kvm, but I'm not sure what the vt-d support is like. I know vmware supports emulating both vt-x and vt-d.
That is the easy part though. Due to the the way CAmkES and capDL presently work all hardware resources (interrupts, memory mapped IO regions, PCI IOSpaces, etc) must all be described statically offline. For this reason I would not recommend starting with the c162 configuration, as it has many devices described all from a particular hardware board.
I would suggest starting with the optiplex9020_onevm configuration, as the only additional resources specified are for additional memory. See the 'vm0_config.ram = ...' line in apps/optiplex9020_onevm/optiplex9020.camkes. This describes a list of physical memory regions of the form (paddr, n) where the size of the region = 2^n bytes.

There's some basic instructions here: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/virtual/kvm/nested-vmx.txt#n45 Additionally, you can nest deeper than the two levels described in that document, but it will get *extremely* slow, so I would not recommend trying it. (There may be other nuances in testing that particular project, but I am not personally aware of them.)
