Re: [Xen-users] xenconsole: Could not read tty from store: No such file or directory

[Steven Timm <timm@xxxxxxxx>]

There were two problems:

1) the devices for /dev/xvc0 (virtual console)  and /dev/xvda2 (swap)
were somehow missing in this domU.  I had already fixed that before
I had sent this E-mail but that was why it didn't autostart on bootup.

2) Once I did that, I had to restart xend to get the system to
activate the domU again successfully and then all was well.
