Dear list, in a private communication i recommend Daniel to use a more recent kernel than the "conservative" V3.2 shipped with Wheezy. He wrote me that this have solved the "shutdown/reboot" issue.
I had have a similar problem and Serge explained me, that on a more recent kernel (>=3.4?) lxc-start may rely on a namespace-aware shutdown system call (and don't need to drop CAP_SYS_BOOT for that). Before, it need to watch the containers utemp file and this will become unavailable if it is "overmounted" by a tmpfs by the containers init framwork. greetings Guido On 2013-07-31 12:01, Danijel Vargek, Continum wrote: > Hi everybody, > is there a way to use Debian-Wheezy containers in a clean, > working way on lxc? > > My current setup involves a Debian-Wheezy Host with several Wheezy containers. > As stated on the Debian wiki (wiki.debian.org/LXC), the original template > ships > with several problems (mainly missing ttys for console login and other stuff). > > We set up our containers with the template recommended on this mailinglist. > Installation worked pretty fine, but there are some problems according to the > init scripts: > > 1.
