[Qemu-discuss] Adding an additional console to the VM on x86

[Jintack Lim]

Hi,

I was able to add an additional console to the VM on ARM like this,

-chardev socket,server,host=*,nowait,port=6666,telnet,id=mychardev0
-device virtio-serial-device
-device virtconsole,chardev=mychardev0

But the same command gave an error on x86.

qemu-system-x86_64: -device virtio-serial-device: No 'virtio-bus' bus
found for device 'virtio-serial-device'

I wonder what would be the correct option to do that on x86?

Thanks,
Jintack
