If you wait about a minutes after the boot has finished the console usually starts responding again and is fine thereafter. Does the console recover on the Raspberry Pi?

Recently though it has stopped responding to the console, for no reason I can determine.

If I press CTRL-E it halts the emulation, but fails to respond to any further key presses at the sim> prompt. If I change the console to be telnet then I can use telnet to log in to the machine etc, perfectly normally.
