Configure your Xen HVM guest to use the serial. Compile Qemu as emulator: ./configure --disable-xen --target-list=x86_64-softmmu then use qemu directly to boot your guest: ./qemu-system-x86_64 -hda /path/to/file -serial tree:/path/to/log,pty you can connect to the pty using a program like picocom: picocom -b 115200 /dev/pts/$NUM
