Oh. I wasn't using a template. Up to now, I have an existing root fileyststem, say /srv/lxc/mycontainer.x86_64 that is pointed to by my configuration file, say mycontainer.conf, by its lxc.rootfs entry. I have seen lxc-create as merely inserting the config from mycontainer.conf into /var/lib/lxc/mycontainer/config and nothing more. I haven't used a template script to create a container because I've got my own that I have been using ever since I first started using lxc (there were no templates back then, well not for arch anyway!). I've always done a destroy/create to update the LXC configuration for a container. This now seems to be the wrong way given destroy removes the rootfs and create expects a template. What's the new way ? I've looked at the man page for lxc-create but am none the wiser. How do I now create a container (or just update the config) for an existing root filesystem ?
