Re: [Xen-users] No login prompt

Fajar,

I think you're right. There is no tty1 in my dev directory.

Maybe something went wrong during the installation - the /dev listing seems very short to me, moreover, I had to create sda*, hda* by myself...

I tried to create tty1:

vm_debian:/dev# mknod c tty1 4 1
mknod: invalid device type `tty1'
Try `mknod --help' for more information.

...but I can see any invalidity in 'tty1'...

As I am new to debian: Is there any .deb-package that installs my devs correctly - or how else can I solve this? (Perhaps a link to a good debian list would also help - I don't want to mess the XEN list)

Thanks!

Cz.

You did it!

Using console instead of tty was the key.

That's odd. On my Fedora 2 and Lineox 4 I just use this on inittab

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1

and comment out all other ttys. How come it doesn't work on your Debian?
Is it possible, perhaps, that you (previously) use /udev, and that your
/dev contains console, but not tty1?

Regards,

Fajar
