Thread-topic:	console woes

I cannot get the xen kernel to read open a console. I finally got it to see my root partition, but now I can't get past this. I've tried every combination of tty0, tty1, tty2, etc., but it hangs with the final error message:

Warning: Unable to open an initial console

My grub.conf file is pretty plain:

default=0

timeout=5

splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

hiddenmenu

title Xen 2.0 / XenLinux 2.6.9

kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=131072

module /vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty1

title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667smp)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667smp ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667smp.img

title Fedora Core-up (2.6.9-1.667)

root (hd0,0)

kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img

Since I am still new to Xen, and quite frankly, don't know exactly what it is doing yet, please be easy on me ;)

Thanks,

greg
