I have a problem with installed Kali Linux 2016 x64 as VM on Xenserver 6.5.
Installing done successful, but when system starting, it not displaying in VM console.
I know, what system started, because ping on it working. But I can't do anything with it. Last message in console is "Boot device: Hard disk - success.
"
I can't connect to Kali Linux even via ssh, it not automatically starting.
What can I do with this problem? Any ideas?

If it's the Kali Linux livecd/usb system, it should log you in as root by default if I recall right. Try typing ALT+F2
to get gnome's Enter a command:
prompt, then type service sshd start
. I think the default root password is toor
. Then you can at least get in and try to find out what's wrong.
If that doesn't work, try pressing enter a few times and waiting a few minutes after it boots up. You might have to get by a prompt asking you if you want to boot into the live environment or do an install.
