I grabbed what I thought was latest yesterday using git. ie roughly I followed the directions to clone the repo, checkout the 29 branch and grab the kernel patch, then compiled kernel, reboot, then build the kernel module from the git repo So this should be latest aufs I think? > But you may meet another problem if you get latest aufs, since you are > patch vserver.

Surely these are all defined within the module code? For reference I am using the latest 2.6.29.5 patch from the bottom of the linux-vserver.org home page (marked experimental, but really just the current status of the project) Thanks for any help - really need to get this working in order to progress some embedded project...
