Which version of the OpenVZ kernel are you using to run containers built
using this template? I've tried using the 2.6.18 RHEL5 versions but a
number of commands fail. It appears that Fedora 10 isn't compatible with
the older kernels. For example touch x results in touch: setting times

Thanks very much for testing this out. I appreciate the help.
The problem with small is that something that used to depend on initscripts
no longer does, so you have to specify it explicitly. I'll fix it in the

I completed a new version of the package tools and templates. These new
versions fully support both RedHat (RHEL, CentOS, Fedora) and Debian
(Debian, Ubuntu) HNs. The major change is splitting the building of the
