Sure Daniel, what you say actually works. But I still want to know, whether I can launch another app into a running container.
Doing as you say: > lxc-execute -n foo /bin/bash -- this bash runs inside container 'foo' > lxc-execute -n bar /bin/bash -- this bash runs inside container 'bar' the 2nd bash will run in a different container named 'bar': e.g. /dev/cgroup/bar. What if I want to launch another app, like helloworld, inside the first running container 'foo'? Thanks!
