Hi,

Change root = parameter to point hvc-console.
This has been explained many times here...


# Set root device.
root = "/dev/xvda1 ro console=hvc"

I didn't read xen-users list for some time, so I missed some things.

But, indeed, it shows something after appending console=hvc, but still, it doesn't start - does it sound familiar (below)?

I tried to search the list, but wasn't very successful in finding an answer (other than it must be a problem on UP kernels).
