This suggests that namespaces are not fully supported with this kernel.
The clone(2) page has this:

   EINVAL CLONE_NEWIPC  was specified in flags, but the kernel was not 
configured with the CONFIG_SYSVIPC and
          CONFIG_IPC_NS options.

   EINVAL CLONE_NEWNET was specified in flags, but the kernel  was  not  
configured  with  the  CONFIG_NET_NS
          option.

   EINVAL CLONE_NEWPID  was  specified  in  flags,  but  the kernel was not 
configured with the CONFIG_PID_NS
          option.

   EINVAL CLONE_NEWUTS was specified in flags, but the kernel was not 
configured with the CONFIG_UTS option.

Could it be one of these?

HTH,
Ludo’.
