Hm - I've tried rebooting the machine, which didn't help. Note that this image *used* to work; something has gotten corrupted somewhere, possibly when it was non-gracefully shutdown. I'm a bit confused; /dev/disk/by-uuid/35b40dbb-337c-4f46-a82f-642d6fbf3faa is swap in the outer machine, not the image itself. Why is lxc-start trying to turn on the swapfile (when it's already on) ? Either way, it's probably a red-herring; I can get past that but it still freezes.. >> Also - lxc looks exactly what I want to isolate some app servers into >> individual units.

Good to know; I'm just slightly nervous as these initial tests have broken an image that was working, so I'd like to know why before I get a problem if I run it live.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
