Maybe this should go to the qemu mail list, but I have domains configured
to dump to serial. Works fine I see Grub menu/kernel messages and the like,
but the "bootmenu" listing only shows up over vnc. Is there a way to have
that show up over serial?
I definitely can hit up the qemu mail list as well if inappropriate for here

I believe
<bios useserial='yes'/>
is the option that makes this work.

Moreover, make sure you use a serial enabled BIOS, like sgabios [1].
Standard seabios doesn't support serial line (well, it was quite a while
ago that I've tested this and it didn't back then, maybe things have
changed since then).

thanks very much sir
I tried that earlier as well, should have mentioned, apologies for
forgetting to do so.
I just see nothing and then the grub menu shows up as usual
the vm is centos 6u5
I'm on ubu 14.04 for the host
1.2.2-0ubuntu13.1.9 for libvirt-bin
