Yes. On what host? An OpenSuse host, Ubuntu host, or Fedora/CentOS host. If you are doing anything other than OpenSuse on OpenSuse, you're going to have a problem bootstrapping your first container thanks to their requirement of zypper in the template. I bootstrapped mine setup for OpenSuse by booting a machine with OpenSuse and installing LXC on it, then creating an OpenSuse container which can then be transported over to the target host (Fedora 20). That first first container can then be used to create new container images. Last time I exchanged E-Mail with the OpenSuse guys about building OpenSuse containers on non-OpenSuse hosts, their response was on the order of "why would anybody want to do that" and "I don't think that will work" and "No I don't think you can build it without using zypper even if it has rpm and yum". I was going to experiment with it using one of their run-live images as a bootstrap core to run the container build from but never got around to it. > Philip Regards, Mike -- Michael H.
