Bug#769406: same problem with virsh / virt-install / serial console / grub2
I'm having the exact same problem.
Installing a VM with virt-install installs a debian VM on my jessie host.
HOST (Deb Jessie Fresh Install) -> VM (Debian Jessie Fresh Install)
You're not able to use "virsh console <vmname>" because ttyS0 serial
console is not in default/grub.
One has to add
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="console=ttyS0,115200n8"
explicitly by oneself, otherwise you wont get a serial console spawn and
cant access the virtual machine from kvm using virsh.
Please fix this asap, thanks.
