Hi All,
I'm try to set up and verify Xen console driver base on Fedora 17 and Xen 4.1.2 with hvm guest mode,
i searched around and got a link, it give steps both for PV and HVM mode, I followed the HVM guide
and upgraded my kernel to 3.5.0.

After that, I can got console output with "xm console <dom_id>", but the console driver is not used when I tracing the driver
with "crash" utility, by examing the "console_drivers", the console driver is still "serial8250 console", so i wonder if I didn't
set up it properly or something else, is there someone ever experienced it, thanks.
