I've just been struggling to get a xen console working for Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy). By default, xen-create-image uses hvc0, but that's only since kernel 2.6.26 (don't know if that's only pv_ops or xen-patched). Hardy uses 2.6.24 and therefore it's xvc0. The xen-create-image command or xen-tools.conf config file therefore need a parameter serial_device=xvc0.

From its inceptions, this blog has run on NearlyFreeSpeech.Net's FreeBSD web hosting service. Because of very clever resource sharing (when not serving visitors, a site hardly takes up resources), their pricing has always been very competitive. That, combined with their technical flexibility, support and transparency has made me more of a fan with every year that I've used their service. Still, sometimes I've been wanting to use something else than CGI (they support many, many programming languages for CGI – even C/C++) or mod_php, like Rails or Django or mod_perl.
