SGABIOS hack is: sudo dpkg-divert --local --rename --add /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-cirrus.bin sudo ln .../sgabios.bin /usr/share/qemu/vgabios-cirrus.bin (symlink is not enough for some reason) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is

Sergey, the other bug notwithstanding, do you have a patch against vmbuilder which you've been using to always define a serial console, or have you been using templates (or doing it by hand)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is

This still won't give full serial console access (BIOS and GRUB won't be configured). In Karmic, replacing VGA BIOS with Google's SGABIOS works, and GRUB can be configured in --execscript. In Lucid, these workarounds don't work anymore (the latter is bug 703959). -- You received this bug

I'm just starting to play with 10.04, and ran into this. Not having easy console access for remote virtual servers is a big step backwards from xen. Sure, I can use templates, and work around all these, but there's a lot of extra work for what I think should be normal. -- Add serial console in

Even though an option would make sense, do you know that you can use the --templates option to set this in a more permanent way? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JeOSVMBuilder#Modifying%20the%20libvirt%20template%20to%20use%20bridging for an example of how to use it Thanks a lot for
