I have changed the comms in minincom to use /dev/tty0 & the baud rate to
9600, yet I can't seem to connect with minicom. Does anyone know how to
connect to a serial device from the console?
This works for me with our Cisco console cables:
sudo yum install picocom
sudo picocom /dev/ttyS0

I have just noticed that there's no serial device loaded, yet I know
it's enabled in the BIOS.
The only reference I could find in dmesg for serial ports is this:
Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled
r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 2.2LK-NAPI loaded
GSI 20 sharing vector 0xC0 and IRQ 20
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:01:00.0[A] -> GSI 20 (level, low) -> IRQ 20
eth0: Identified chip type is 'RTL8169s/8110s'.

So, it seems like there's no serial port in the Xen kernel, or am I
missing something? How do I get the serial port to work in CentOS 5.1 + Xen?
