I am up to Step #5 of the Fedora Core 5 Linux-Vserver install with a side trip to the FC4 page to get the patched yum information/link -- yum-2.4.1-1.chroot.fc4.noarch.rpm file.

This is the results of testme.sh

The vserver guest 'test' does start and can be entered.

I have used yum/rpm installs for all things.

Any suggestions as to where to look to get the correct value(s) for RPMSTATEDIR and where to set it?


TIA,

Well, everything is working fine here, with kernel-2.6.16-1.2123_FC5.vs2.0.2.0.rc21.1, util-vserver-0.30.210-14.fc5 and yum-2.6.1-0.fc5. Did you try without the patched yum?
