Unable to connect to console to recently cloned VM's

[Javi Legido <javi@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all.

I was using libvirt under Debian squeeze (I guess it was
0.8.3-5+squeeze4 or something similar). I was able to clone machines
with below command:

sudo virt-clone  --connect=qemu:///system -o template -n
template_clone -f /var/lib/libvirt/images/template_clone.qcow2

After that I was able to start the VM and connect to the console:

sudo virsh console template_clone

I recently Installed libvirt on a Debian wheezy ( libvirt-bin
0.9.12-11). I recuperated the old "template" VM, and I tried to create
a new one successfully.

What I CAN do:

1. Start both VM's (the template imported from the old installation
and the new one)
2. Connect to the console of both VM's
3. Clone them

What I CAN'T do:

1. Access to the console of the cloned VM, they stalled at the prompt.

Just in case config of the VM:

<domain type='kvm'>
  <name>template-1.dev.jj.com</name>
  <uuid>f75dcbdc-8fc9-b50c-6612-c34dfebea16f</uuid>
  <memory unit='KiB'>1048576</memory>

    <type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-1.1'>hvm</type>
    <boot dev='hd'/>

  <devices>

    <disk type='file' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='qcow2' cache='none'/>
      <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/template-1.dev.jj.com.qcow2'/>
      <target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04'

    </disk>
    <controller type='usb' index='0'>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x01'
function='0x2'/>
    </controller>
    <interface type='network'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:c0:c6:24'/>
      <source network='default'/>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03'
function='0x0'/>
    </interface>
    <serial type='pty'>
      <target port='0'/>
    </serial>
    <console type='pty'>
      <target type='serial' port='0'/>
    </console>
    <memballoon model='virtio'>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05'
function='0x0'/>
    </memballoon>
  </devices>
</domain>

Is somebody else experiencing the same problem? I'm not sure even that
the clones VM is working, since I'm able to start it up but no connect
to it.

Thanks.

Javier
