  • Thread-topic: console woes

I cannot get the xen kernel to read open a console.  I finally got it to see my root partition, but now I can't get past this.  I've tried every combination of tty0, tty1, tty2, etc., but it hangs with the final error message:
 
Warning:  Unable to open an initial console
 
My grub.conf file is pretty plain:
 
 
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
 
title Xen 2.0 / XenLinux 2.6.9
kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=131072
module /vmlinuz-2.6.10-xen0 root=/dev/sda3 ro console=tty1
 
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667smp)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667smp ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667smp.img
 
title Fedora Core-up (2.6.9-1.667)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img
 
Since I am still new to Xen, and quite frankly, don't know exactly what it is doing yet, please be easy on me ;)
 
Thanks,
 
greg
