[Fedora-xen] xenconsole: Could not open tty `/dev/pts/2''
I just got the 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5xen0 running. I''m trying to create my first VM and I get the following error. [''/usr/sbin/xm'', ''create'', ''-c'', ''/etc/xen/XP64-Dev''] Using config file "/etc/xen/XP64-Dev". Started domain XP64-Dev xenconsole: Could not open tty `/dev/pts/2'': No such file or directory XM command exited. Your guest can be restarted by running ''xm create -c XP64-Dev''. Otherwise, you can reconnect to the console with vncviewer or ''xm console'' Anyone have an idea about why the pseudo-terminal device is not there.
