Hi,

I have the same console problem with Full Virtualization... As I am not using any graphic card, I would have liked to use a serial console to connect to my Full Virtualized DomU's console. Do anybody knows how to do this ?

thanks

if you are using full virt the -c will not worked.

You can still mount the partition from the VM directly on your system.
You may want to look at kpartx ( if you are using lvm in your guest )/
lomount ( if no LVM in guest ) to achieve it.
