Hi,
to use the disk limit feature of vserver (see
http://linux-vserver.org/Disk_Limits_and_Quota) one had to use the mount
option "tagxid" for a partition holding vserver guest filesystems with the
2.6.18 kernel in etch.
With the 2.6.26 kernel in lenny this option has been renamed to "tag". If this
isn't changed in /etc/fstab manually, the partition won't be mounted and thus
the vservers wont start.
Please add this to the release notes for 5.0.1.
Thanks,
Holger
