Yes, thanks. Uncommenting "serial_device = hvc0" in /etc/xen-tools/xen-tools.conf was enough to get me to a login prompt with "xm console <dom-id>. But it still didn't allow an ssh login: ----------- begin transcript ------------- ~# ssh 192.168.153.110 ssh: connect to host 192.168.153.110 port 22: Connection refused ------------ end transcript -------------- I tried another run of xen-create-image with the udev role appended. That didn't fix the ssh problem. It appears that ssh is not installed: ----------- begin transcript ------------- ~# xm console 1 . . . Starting periodic command scheduler: crond.
