Hi, all
I don''t understand why do_console in xm/create.py will try to start
the console inside a loop. If the domain crashed before execConsole,
get_domid could throw out an exception and then os.waitpid will throw
out OSError and complain about no such child process. Obviously, this
is an incorrect error information. The attached patch fixs it:
