The issue isn't the domain and there's no pre-installed image. It's a
chicken and egg problem to bootstrap the keyring to validate the signed
packages.
Assume install on a foreign OS. The foreign OS probably won't have a
Devuan keyring. When running debootstrap, among the packages it will
download is the keyring package. When it goes to validate the download
(which includes the keyring package), it doesn't have a key to validate,
so it fails with "Release signed by unknown key".

Hi Simon,
For now we can work it that way.
I just pushed an update that adds support for LXC <= 1.0.8.
The README is updated to use ./config-1.0.8 for LXC <= 1.0.8
The existing ./config directory is for LXC >= 1.1.0
It'll be great if you'll test again.
So if you've already forked, please fetch and rebase.
Thanks
Greg
