[Xen-devel] [PATCH OSSTEST 2/2] ts-debian-hvm-install: Arrange for installed guest to use a serial console

[Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

So that the guest boot will be logged somewhere useful (the qemu-dm
log).

It still seems to pickup a "quiet" from somewhere, so it's not as
useful as it might be, but it is an improvement.
