I don't think the appliance is set up to use a serial console by
default... This is something the Thincrust folks might want to change to
their default appliance creation scripts. (cc'd thincrust-devel for this)
Reinstalling the appliance should be the following:
1. First make sure your appliance is dead: virsh destroy ovirt-appliance
2. Reinstall the ovirt-appliance RPM (if it's already installed you
may need to rpm -Uvh --force it to overwrite the old RPM files)
3. Run create-ovirt-appliance
4. virsh start ovirt-appliance
5. virt-viewer ovirt-appliance
Do this, and if there are still failures, please send (or post on
ovirt.pastebin.com) the log output for files on the appliance in:
/var/log/ace
/var/log/ovirt-server
/var/log/ovirt-*
Thanks,
Perry
