Thanks!

What I am trying is,
in short,  A CD bootable OpenVZ with Ubuntu.
So, using precreated template is not a solution for me.

Same concept ISO image with KNOPPIX has been released
from SW Soft, and I am working on same one with Ubuntu.

And, I want not to change ISO as far as possible,
because people want to run that famous and familiar OS on VE,
not special customized minor OS.
To achive this, I need to mount loop-backed ISO image
on /var/lib/vz/private/101/.

Stopping udev and it will work? Thanks. thanks!.
I will try it.
