You mean that this message is part of the console output of the
other domain that is booting?

What root file system are you using? RH9?
If so, append "NOZEROCONF=yes" to /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-lo

It means that you need to edit your /etc/inittab to comment out
the lines that are running a *getty on tty[123456]. If you were
running 1.3 you could start a mingetty on xen/cons (having done
the mknod), but in 1.2 you'll have to log in over the network.

If sshd is starting in your new domain, and you've configured
its network correctly, you should be able to ssh in.

Best,
Ian
