Re: [Xen-users] console output stops but everything else is fine

[Steven Timm <timm@xxxxxxxx>]

Check the inittab of the xen instance and also the options to pygrub
if you are using pygrub.  It appears that output is getting
redirected to a non-existent console device somewhere.  If there
are any co: lines in the inittab of the domU you should take them out,
also if there are any console=ttyS0 lines in the grub.conf of
pygrub take them out
