You probably need to enable hardware virtualization in your machine's BIOS.
You need to be running a recent version of 64-bit-Ubuntu, and you need to install several prerequisites:
sudo apt-get install ruby apache2 git apt-cacher-ng python-vm-builder qemu-kvm

Sanity checks:
sudo service apt-cacher-ng status # Should return apt-cacher-ng is running
ls -l /dev/kvm # Should show a /dev/kvm device

Here's a description of Gavin's setup on OSX 10.6:
1. Download and install VirtualBox from https://www.virtualbox.org/

2. Download the 64-bit Ubuntu Desktop 12.04 LTS .iso CD image from

3. Run VirtualBox and create a new virtual machine, using the
Ubuntu .iso (see the VirtualBox documentation for details).
Create it with at least 2 gigabytes of memory and a disk
that is at least 20 gigabytes big.

4. Inside the running Ubuntu desktop, install:
sudo apt-get install debootstrap lxc ruby apache2 git apt-cacher-ng python-vm-builder

hardware and software" instructions above:
export USE_LXC=1
git clone git://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
