Hi,

I'm trying to understand how to use the escape character '^]' with
the
below command:

virt-install --name=try06 --graphic none --pxe --network bridge=virbr0
--console pty,target_type=serial

"Starting install...
Connected to domain try06
Escape character is ^]"

When I try to do '^]', it does not escape.

The '--console' option makes no difference.

In other words, what is the best way to get back to the host from a
broken guest installation.


I'm remotely connected to this server using SSH and doing '~.' quits
the
SSH connection.

Any help is appriciated.
