Package: lxc Version: 0.8.0~rc1-4~bpo60+1 Severity: wishlist When generating a new container with debian-debconf-template the config includes: lxc.mount.entry = proc /var/lib/lxc/CN/rootfs/proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0 lxc.mount.entry = sysfs /var/lib/lxc/CN/rootfs/sys sysfs defaults,ro 0 0
This won't work out of the box if the container's rootfs is copied to a single file image (myrootfs.ext3). As Serge Hallyn proposed on the lxc-devel list, relative paths should be used in the templates. I switched the above to lxc.mount.entry = proc proc proc nodev,noexec,nosuid 0 0 lxc.mount.entry = sysfs sys sysfs defaults,ro 0 0 and it worked for both variants - plain rootfs in host's fs AND rootfs on blockdev like a file image (lxc-0.8.0 from squeeze-backports). -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lxc depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.3-3 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.19-3 support for getting/setting POSIX.
