First, if anyone has any good resources on how to do a P2V conversion efficiently, please share. I just did my first P2V conversion. It actually went smoother than I had anticipated. However, I cannot console in to the machine (Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop x86). I can SSH in, but I''d like the console capability in the event something with the network breaks. I tried the following: http://wiki.linuxservertech.com/faq/index.php?action=artikel&cat=3&id=168&artlang=en http://wiki.debian.org/Xen Which are essentially the same thing, but to no avail. Any thoughts? -- Thanks, Matt Baer Network Manager Leaf River Telephone Company 102 W Second Street Leaf River, IL 815.738.2211 - Main Office 866.738.2211 - Toll Free mbaer@lrnet1.com _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users

Yes. I''ve replicated it and oddly enough, I do get console on first boot, but after that, it''s dead. This could be highly problematic if...well, anything ever happens to it. If it won''t boot or I lose networking somehow, I''m up the creek.

Setting up a console isn''t really that hard. :-) Wei.> On Jun 7, 2013 9:42 AM, "Matt Baer" <mbaer@lrnet1.com> wrote: > > > First, if anyone has any good resources on how to do a P2V conversion > > efficiently, please share. > > > > I just did my first P2V conversion.
