It's a little cumbersome, but F8 will open a menu on vncviewer where you can pick toggles for ctrl & alt. After turning those toggles on, you can switch between virtual consoles by just pressing the Fn keys. Except f8... which has to be chosen from the f8 menu...

If this was an install on a real physical hardware
I would sit at the console and use Ctrl-Alt-Fn to access various logs,
and get a shell login using the alternate virtual consoles,
but when I try this the Ctrl-Alt-Fn keystrokes are processed by the
Hardy laptop and I acces its alternate virtual consoles instead
of the domU's alternate consoles.
Isn't installing without a graphical console more akin to installing over a serial console, i.e. you haven't *got* multiple virtual consoles to switch between, just *the* console?
Have you tried a GUI install with a VNC console instead?
