Package: dtc-xen Version: 0.5.14-1~bpo60+1 Severity: normal When installing a new CentOS domU, DTC-Xen forces the 'extra' parameter in the /etc/xen/xenXX file to be '4'. This is fine normally, but it appears as though when using a >= 3.0 kernel (possibly with Xen hypervisor 4.x) that the term parameters are required otherwise xm console doesn't output boot messages. It still outputs kernel messages though.
The last few lines from xm console are: [ 0.653046] kjournald starting.
