'lxc-create -n foo' is pointless. Actually I think it should return with a non-zero exit code. If you have an lxc config file, you can create a real container: lxc-create -n foo -f config Or you can create a specific (eg. ubuntu precice, debian squeeze, fedora...etc) container with the -t switch, which invokes a wrapper script, that makes a number of changes on the filesystem, like debootstrap, create config, setup a default user in the container. tamas ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
