Hi,
I built xen 3.0-unstable with VT-x support on SLES 10.1. The machine
boots ok and I start xend manually. I encounter the following
problem is with guest creation:
$xm create -c /etc/xen/vm/SLES9x32_16G
Using config file "/etc/xen/vm/SLES9x32_16G".
Started domain SLES9x32_16G
xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory
The guest is created but remains blocked.
Using xm console <ID> does not resolve the problem.
I saw previous postings describing the same error. In one instance the was due
to absence of root filesystem for guest, which appears to be not the case
here (details below). In another instance the consoled was not running.
I checked consoled using ps -ef and found it running with '?' in the tty field.
Below is infomation about the changeset, guest configuration, and xen
grub configuration. Please let me know if more information is needed to
determine the problem. It's most likely I'm missing something in the setup.
Thanks,
