Hello xen-users !

I am coming for help concerning the just released 4.0 version. Install has worked rather well on my Debian Lenny. I have just had a few bugs for which I have found the answer looking around on this list.

I have created a Debian Lenny domU which boots up just fine. The only problem is that I am unable to get a console prompt when using "xm console nameofdomU". I do see all the startup stuff but I see no login prompt. If I connect to the domU via SSH, it work perfectly fine.

I have tried adding the following line to the domU configuration file which used to work fine in Xen 3.2 but with no success :

extra       = 'xencons=tty1, clocksource=jiffies'

I have also tried with tty instead of tty1 but that doesn't change anything.

Am I missing something ?

Thank you in advance for your help,

Antoine Benkemoun
