there could be other problems, but you need to define a config file with lxc-create (the -f option). specifically you need the option:
lxc.rootfs = <wherever you just debootstrapped> to be defined. otherwise, the rootfs will be the shared with the host. anything that is not defined in the config file is shared with the host (network stack, hostname, resources, etc) specifically in the rootfs case, newer revisions of lxc-* tools will not even allow you to get as far as you did (sharing the rootfs doesnt make sense for a system container). see this thread for more details: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1382823 specifically this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8736281&postcount=10 where i referenced this bug report. -- LXC does not work with lucid host and lucid container https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/512200 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
