strangely enough, adding the aa_allow_incomplete option doesn't seem to make a difference; container startup keeps failing at the same point.
In any case, it does seem to initialize the container correctly, and I seem to hit a different issue. The entire cgroup thing seems to work now, at least: lxc-start 1455916829.396 INFO lxc_start - start.c:lxc_init:474 - 'aansluitform-deploy' is initialized lxc-start 1455916829.396 DEBUG lxc_start - start.c:__lxc_start:1186 - Not dropping cap_sys_boot or watching utmp lxc-start 1455916829.396 INFO lxc_start - start.c:resolve_clone_flags:883 - Cloning a new user namespace lxc-start 1455916829.396 INFO lxc_cgroup - cgroup.c:cgroup_init:65 - cgroup driver cgmanager initing for aansluitform-deploy lxc-start 1455916829.507 NOTICE lxc_start - start.c:do_start:699 - switching to gid/uid 0 in new user namespace lxc-start 1455916829.509 DEBUG lxc_conf - conf.c:setup_rootfs:1295 - mounted '/home/bas/.local/share/lxc/aansluitform-deploy/rootfs' on '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc' lxc-start 1455916829.509 INFO lxc_conf - conf.c:setup_utsname:928 - 'aansluitform-deploy' hostname has been setup lxc-start 1455916829.509 DEBUG lxc_conf - conf.c:setup_netdev:2595 - 'eth0' has been setup lxc-start 1455916829.509 INFO lxc_conf - conf.c:setup_network:2616 - network has been setup lxc-start 1455916829.509 INFO lxc_conf - conf.c:mount_autodev:1157 - Mounting container /dev lxc-start 1455916829.509 INFO lxc_conf - conf.c:mount_autodev:1179 - Mounted tmpfs onto /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc/dev lxc-start 1455916829.509 INFO lxc_conf - conf.c:mount_autodev:1197 - Mounted container /dev which seems to pass the point where it failed before.
