-serial pty in qemu, how to open?

Question

I am running qemu with -serial pty option, and qemu gave this message char device redirected to /dev/pts/1 however, it doesn't generate new window, I can do `cat` on pts1 from different window, but then I can't input any character to it. Is there anyway you can start a new xterm with specific pts number?

Accepted Answer

My recommendation is using screen. Supposing you get assigned /dev/pts/1, you should call, on another terminal, the following command:

```
# screen /dev/pts/1
```
