Bug#504709: Xen console problems
Subject: linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64: DomU console problems
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-xen-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-8
Severity: important
I created a Xen DomU with xen-tools with:
xen-create-image -debootstrap -dir=/home/xen -size=20Gb -memory=512Mb -fs=ext3 -cache=yes -dist=lenny -hostname=mapnik -ip 10.0.0.1 -netmask 255.0.0.0 -gateway 10.0.0.254 -mirror=http://mirror.isoc.org.il/pub/debian/ --role=minimal --image=sparse
I got a proper disk image and swap image that I can loop mount.
I try to start it with;
xm create -c /etc/xen/mapnik.cfg
It starts to boot and then there are no longer console messages and there is no console login. The last message is about the lo driver. I attach the console log.
If I try to connect with ssh (using NAT networking) I can connect and after loop mounting and setting a root password I can even login but I get an error that there is no tty and I cannot do much beyond that. I can however connect with ssh to execute commands inside the machine such as ls / and things seem to work and booted.
