As alluded to at
https://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_Common_Problems#Can_I_set_up_Xen_HVM_Linux_guest_to_display_the_kernel_boot_messages_on_.22xl_console.22_.3F
what you have is a HVM guest so the console inside the guest is
ttyS0. Unless your guest has been configured to log to ttyS0 and
present a login prompt on ttyS0, you aren't going to see anything or
get any response when you type things.

If it were a PV guest then we'd be talking hvc0 instead of ttyS0,
but same deal.

Cheers,
Andy
