  Howdy!
  
  	What is the correct way to obtain serial consoles on
  kvm instances..
  
  	kvm -serial ${SOME_DEV}
  
  	What should SOME_DEV be and then how can I access the
  serial console?
  
  	I am on Ubuntu Hardy, and tried various things like ptmx, ttyS2
  etc but couldn't get anything to work.
  
  	thanx - steve
