Concerning the console problem I have found this:
http://marc.info/?l=xen-users&m=118251303120172&w=2
------------------
Hi Zechao,

well I've had a similiar problem, maybe this will help you
to solve the problem:

Look for the following line in the file /etc/inittab of
you domU (try to mount the domU image in dom0 to edit the inittab
file of the vm):

co:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty console

If the line is missing simply add it to the inittab. Below
you find an example how (a part of) my inittab looks like.

-----
# Run gettys in standard runlevels
#
#line added to get a login prompt:
#(dont forget to comment out the following line)
#
co:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty console
#co:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty xvc0 9600 vt100-nav

#1:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty1
#2:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty2
#3:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty3
#4:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty4
#5:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty5
#6:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty6
-------------

Instead of co:2345:respawn:/sbin/mingetty console,
I have put: co:2345:respawn:/sbin/gety console as I don't have
mingetty on my Debian.

But I still get the same error message.


I also found this:
http://www.nabble.com/xenconsole:-Could-not-read-tty-from-store:-No-such-file-or-directory-td11245504.html

But I'd like to know exactly what is going wrong, and if it applies to
my Debian DomU? I don't to mess things up even more then they already
are.
