Restoring terminal/TTY to normal after virt-install?

  • 772

After having created a VM with virt-install then the terminal is only 24 lines, where the terminal have 70 lines.

I recall seeing a similar issue with virsh console.

Question

Ideally would I like both virt-install and virsh console use the entire terminal, but a way to restore the terminal back to normal after use, would be much apreciated.

linux kvm-virtualization virsh virt-install

    Try using the reset command. Its purpose is to reset the terminal to a sane state after it has gone haywire.

    The man page explains the specifics of how it reconfigures a terminal, if you need to get down into those weeds.
