[Xen-users] Console stops responding after init finsihes runlevel 2 startup

[Simon Hobson <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have a new guest (Debian Etch) which started life as a physical 
machine. I installed a Xen kernel (2.6.26-2-xen-686) and copied the 
filesystem contents to a new volume on an existing Xen host (kernel 
2.6.18-6-xen-686 and xen-hypervisor-3.2-1-i386).
It boots and runs just fine, but as init finishes starting things up 
in runlevel 2 the console stops responding. Console output still 
works (eg kernel messages are produced when loading modules), but no 
keyboard input is accepted. I put some scripts in /etc/rc2.d that 
just did "sleep 5", and while these are sleeping, I can hit return 
and get blank lines. Immediately the last file is run, the keyboard 
stops responding.
If i startup in single user mode and manually start each service, it 
works fine.
Any suggestions where to look ?
