Fixed In Version: rhel-server-x86_64-kvm-6.4_20130130.0-7 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
* The Red Hat Enterprise Linux guest image did not make use of the ttyS0 serial port by default, so tools that monitor the serial console log did not capture any information. This update adds a console log feature to the boot loader, and the Red Hat Enterprise Linux guest image will now print boot messages on the ttyS0 serial port and the standard console.
