your vserver is trying to configure the interfaces,
this is not allowed and will fail

again, the vserver scripts (inside the vserver) try
to shutdown the interface, which you do not want
and therefore is not allowed either ...

again something which isn't supposed to happen
inside a vserver, you do not want the vserver to 
mess with your cmos clock, right?

remove all hardware related init scripts from your
vserver and everything should be fine ...

using a prebuilt image or the alpha tools will
take care of taht for you ...

try to use static context ids, otherwise you will
ran into problems once you want to use xid tagging

nothing which should happen inside a vserver, the
kernel is maintained on the host. period.

you do not want klogd inside a vserver either 
(it won't work anyway)

all the stuff below is not supposed to happen inside 
a vserver, so remove/deconfigure relevant scripts
