Hi,

> I use SuSE SLES 9 guests, except I cheated.

Wow, thats great! Exactly what i need!

i've tried that one week ago (with suse 9.2 prof.) ...

(1) made 2 partitions
(2) installed suse to each partition (making 2 minimal installations)
(3) used the one as vserver-host, the other as a template for a vserver
(4) deploy-vserver ... skeleton
(5) copied the template to there
(6) replaced fstab
(7) done some thinks i don't remind

Yep I think 7) is where the problem is :) Luckily I remember what I did....
mostly! The main problems are because of the way SuSE init works.

ok, started from the beginning - seem's to work now :-))

1) edit the main init script /vservers/<foo>/etc/init.d/rc and after the
initial comment, add:
RUNLEVEL="$1"

ok, this was the point i didn't do ...

2) edit the /vservers/<foo>/etc/init.d/network script and put some "exit
0"'s in it. Otherwise you get a hang on vserver startup/shutdown when the
guest tries to flush the interfaces/addresses or something.

hm, i had to comment-out and disable some other stuff ... things like hotplug-scan-on-boot and boot-logging to /dev/console (which does not exist inside a vserver) ... but no problem - the errors while vserver-start have pointed me in the right direction ;-)

Again, thx very much!
Oliver
