Hi guys,

I tried with all your recommendations but didn't work. I have no prompt access to the dumU. I successfully installed Xen 4.0 on Slackware64, make world and make installed worked like a charm. I usually use images from stacklet.com for domU's but always 32bit. I wanted to give Slack64 a try as domU so downloaded it. First I tried as it comes but not able to access console. It gave me this error:

INIT: Id "xvc0" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

I have a Debian Etch running Xen 3.0.2 and I usually have that error but whenever I press Enter, it gave me prompt.


So I found this threaded and replaced every ttyS* with hvc0 in /etc/inittab as well as /etc/securetty. I also added 
extra       = 'console=hvc0 xencons=tty'
to domU's config with almost same result but now I have this output:


INIT: Id "c2" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "c1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "c3" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "c4" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "c5" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "c6" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: Id "xvc0" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel

I did not try to access it using ssh as I wanted to access console first.


Any help on this will be much appreciated

Thanks and regards.

Christian
