This sound really great. I was wondering if anyone uses user namespaces
and shared rootfs?
I got the roblem the skeleton of the ro-root on the host has uid 0 for
the root files, but the guest maps them to nobody, so i cant use shared
rootfs and user namespaces together. I cant think of a better sol
We have a particular use case, but we are achieving this using CernVM-FS
(http://cernvm.cern.ch/portal/filesystem) to supply read-only root filesystems
to many machines (with local caching), and then aufs or overlayfs (depending on
the kernel version) to provide write support as others have sugg

Subject: [Lxc-users] Using common rootfs for multiple containers
Hi,
I would like it know is it possible to create a single rootfs (might be in
read-only mode) and share it among multiple containers ?
Currently for every container we create its own unique rootfs.
What would be the
Yes, this is possible.
There are multiple approaches, for example:
1. Creating a snapshot (or outright copy) of a filesystem, then
disposing of it when done.
(1a) Manually creating a full copy
(1b) Using a blockstore-provided snapshot facility such as LVM2
2. Using a snapshot-capable filesys

At Dotcloud.com they use one basic OS rootfs. For each container they
mount this OS rootfs read-only and use a union file-system (AUFS) to add
a writable layer.

Currently for every container we create its own unique rootfs.
What would be the best place to look in code for using single rootfs across
multiple containers.
