I had this with Debian DomUs and fixed it by editing the /etc/inittab
in each DomU to reflect:

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1

Previously, this line said:

1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 console

After editing, just logging out of the console to get the "login:"
prompt again should be enough. Failing that, reboot the DomU :)

Cheers,
Gavin.
