Have a look at how libguestfs does it:
http://git.annexia.org/?p=libguestfs.git;a=blob;f=appliance/init;hb=HEAD
The rest of the code in the appliance/ subdirectory is useful
to look at too.
Rich.
I started udev with /sbin/start_udev, as in the init script, but that seems
to have no effect ("ps aux | grep udev" gives me no output.) If I start the
guest with
qemu-kvm -kernel kernel -initrd initrd -hda root -device virtio-serial
-serial stdio -chardev
socket,path=/home/uckelman/projects/lightbox/supermin/foo,id=channel0
-device virtserialport,chardev=channel0,name=org.libguestfs.channel.0
what should I expect the device connected to the pipe on the guest side to
be called?
