Cloud images for KVM can't run in LXC container because first, image should be slightly modified (because it doesn't have its own kernel) and also it should be single FS, not an image with partition table. The only way which I found to start sort of a container is to download an image from OpenVZ size, covert it to raw format without partition table. At least it runs init and some processes, but it doesn't work completely...
