Well, don't know what you exactely mean by 'too unreadable'. I managed
to install by setting the terminal emulation to VT100 when asked.

I didn't use that during the install. I just enabled the serialconsole
on com0 at the end of the install and then used it to access the VM on
boot with 'xm console'. As said I can't post my configuration file right
now, but will do as soon as I get back to the office.
