What lxc init script? I think we all write our own and there is no official one yet. I write one for openSUSE but it's not in the suse lxc package nor in any other official suse package, just in a stand-alone rclxc package in my buildservice repo. If the official packages for other distros includes an init script, it will be different for each one since containers are such a low-level feature that can be used for so many different kinds of jobs, it's hard to imagine what an official init script would even be like. -- bkw ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Xperia(TM) PLAY It's a major breakthrough.
