Actually no. I just tested now. The screen goes blank during the dom0 kernel
boot and then shows back up when I get a login: prompt.

I have done most of my testing over a serial console and with the serial
console it shows up.

Jeremy: would you expect this to work? Were there recent patches that
we could be missing?

Cheers,
Todd
