What devices do you have under /dev?
You should make sure that (in guest):
- /etc/inittab does not spawn unwanted gettys
- /dev does not contain /dev/tty* used by host
- /dev is clean of other "host-only" devices
Did you do etc-update cleaning up everything? (also removing all
config-protected orphean files of baselayout) Reconfiguration of ttys by the
guest is probably not wanted.
You should still be able to access your host using ssh, even if the guest
grabbed the local ttys. (CTRL+ALT+DEL) on the keyboard should still send the
signal to host's init to.
Best,
Bruno
