OK.
I'd try tty0, or ttyS0, as a last attempt. More than that I can't
suggest anything useful. I guess a bit of trial and error via
running a getty command manually via ssh and observing the response
would narrow it down.

I guess that just means you have no /dev/xvc0 - which means you're
running an old-style Xen system.
