You are telling the guest to use the emulated serial device it sees, not a PTY on the host (which it can't access directly anyways). Google 'linux serial console' for more info (FYI, virsh and virt-install questions are better directed to libvirt-list@xxxxxxxxxx or virt-tools-list@xxxxxxxxxx respectively). - Cole -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
