Hi Rolf,

you are talking about ubuntu domUs, right?
This may help:
1. add/change the following in your domU config
extra="console=xvc0"
2. run the following command in Ubuntu domU:

|cat /etc/event.d/tty1 | sed "s/tty1/xvc0/" > /etc/event.d/xvc0
|


hope it helps,

Greetz Age_M

Im using Ubuntu 8.04 for my Xen machine (xen 3.2).
When i use Ubuntu's stock kernel for xen (with kernel and initrd) i get console 
on my vm if i specify xencons=tty.
This does however not work on my linux 2.6.25.7 kernel with paravirt ops for any of my vms. It just shows the init prosess and nothing more. How do i get a console up and running?
Could it be any modules i lack in my kernel config?
