So, with <console> attribute as below, 'virsh console foo' doesn't give you
access via
'virsh console foo'
#-------------------------------------#
<console type="pty">
<target port="0"/>
</console>
#-------------------------------------#
With the below snippet, access from 'virsh console' works just fine right after
Oz
finishes guest install.
#-------------------------------------#
<serial type="pty">
<target port="0"/>
</serial>
#-------------------------------------#
I tested this and it works just fine.
That's the snippet from oz-install tdl --

I'll investigate into this further.
Thanks Chris.
