PV DomU hangs during boot
You need to add /dev/hvc0 to your /etc/inittab as a console.

        Hi guys,
        
        maybe I'm too sleep deprived or just dumb, but can't get it working 
(using standard Lenny Xen 3.2.1 and Xen kernel 2.6.26-2-xen-amd64 - will move 
to another later) :(.
        
        Steps (inspiration taken from 
http://www.asplund.nu/xencluster/xen-convert-hvm-to-pvm.html):
        
        1. Created HVM Debian Lenny amd64 DomU with img file as hda (standard 
netinst installation without LVM and with everything in /).
        2. Installed Debian xen kernel in this DomU via aptitude.
        3. Created two LVMs in Dom0 for the PV (one with ext3 for / and second 
one for swap)
        4. rsynced everything from / of HVM DomU from the hda img file to the 
ext3 LVM (using losetup and kpartx)
        5. changed /etc/fstab in the LVM to xvda1 and xvda2
        6. Created PV DomU  and experienced  hang during boot (see attached txt 
logs - boot log and PV cfg file)
        
        Bad initrd?
        
        Many thanks for your help.
        
        Regards
