Hello,
I am trying to boot a F7 LiveCD with the following command line
virt-install --hvm --name=mytestvm --ram=1280 \
--nodisks --livecd --cdrom=livecd-20070818-2122.iso \
--os-type=linux --vcpus=1 --vnc
However, I cannot connect to the console. All that I get is a black screen.
The liveCD is built with the default livecd-tools kickstart which
produces a simple, no-X based console system.
I have read through the list and noticed that there was a thread about
having to have inittab setup so that the console is pointed at xvc0?
and also so the kernel had a command line of "console=tty
console=xvc0,9600n8"
is this the case, or is there something else I'm missing?
thanks,
jon
