Xen on arndale 5250.

[Mazen Ezzeddine (Student)]

Dear experts,

I am running Xen 4.5 on the arndale 5250 by compiling u-boot, Xen,  Linux kernel(3.18.3) and filesystem (ubuntu Trusty). Boot messages of Xen  and kernel are fine  and Dom0 is booted. However, I see the below login message and  can not login to Dom0. Please note that typed characters (from my host to the console) do not apper on the console. Any hint please?

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS dom0 hvc0

dom0 login: Password:

You have to tell to Ubuntu which console is used. See:

Thanks Julien, 

I added the hvc0 config file  but now I can see the typed characthers on the console, but I still can not login, what is the default login, I tried several alternatives but still not able to login. I am missing something?

Thank you so much.

Where did you get the filesystem? Did you look if they provide 
instruction to log in?

If you followed section 11-12 step by step you set the password your own 
password. You are the only one to know it...

Thanks, 

Last time I did not set any passwd. In all cases, I will recompile/rebuild and report.

Thank you so much.

Please don't top post.

Any default password will be set by whoever created the rootfs image, it
is not something which anyone here is going to know.

I note that the wiki page you mention above includes a section on
setting the root password.

If you need additional help with that wiki page then I suggest you
contact the author.
