Bug Description
It may be a good idea to add in xml configuration file generated by vm-builder the definition of the serial port. Actually, we habe to add it by hand :(. I have to add in the xml file the following lines:
8<-----
<serial type='pty'>
<target port='0'/>
</serial>
<console type='pty'>
<target port='0'/>
</console>
8<-----
It would be even beter if we have a way (option in vmbuilder ?) to activate the serial console (getty listening on ttyS0 and grub beeing aware of this console).

Even though an option would make sense, do you know that you can use the --templates option to set this in a more permanent way?

Thanks a lot for suggesting this in any case.
