I am using the template from here: http://bodhizazen.fivebean.net/LXC/
The system seems pretty safe and does not impose any kind of change, as changes in the way of using udev. I did upgrade all the packages and the only problem was with the mountall. I will try to resolve keeping the udev and return the result. I'll contact the owner of the site where i downloaded the template. Thank you for the great job. 2010/7/31 Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezc...@free.fr>: > On 07/31/2010 03:21 PM, Osvaldo Filho wrote: >> >> The mountall package break lxc-console >> > > The problem may come from the event "start on mounted MOUNTPOINT=/dev" > (/etc/init/mouted-dev.conf) triggering the copy of /lib/udev/library.
