While it'll likely cause problems at some point, I think the lxc-ubuntu template should pin the versions of those packages. There's probably a more maintainable way of handling this - like either having our own post-upgrade hooks which undo badness from those packages, or just keep a set of lxc package archives. > After reboot I get "lxc-console: console denied by 'server'" when trying > to get console access.

Can anyone help me please? Search the archives for udev, someone had this problem before and documented the fix. -serge ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Lxc-users mailing list Lxc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/lxc-users
