I tried the fix and I got the same symptom. For clarity:
- I wiped out /var/lxc/cache before I started because lxc-create wasn't working. That got lxc-create working. I used the same commands I listed in the bug description. - I changed the container's console.conf as described: $ cat /var/lib/lxc/lp/rootfs/etc/init/console.conf # /dev/console - getty # # This service maintains a getty on /dev/console from the point the # system is started until it is shut down again. # It only runs in lxc containers. # Libvirt links /dev/tty1 to /dev/pts/0. ## start on stopped rc RUNLEVEL=[2345] start on mounted MOUNTPOINT=/run stop on runlevel [!2345] env container env LIBVIRT_LXC_UUID pre-start script [ "x$container" = "xlxc" ] && exit 0; stop; exit 0; end script respawn exec /sbin/getty -8 38400 /dev/console - sudo lxc-start -n lp then hangs with the exact same symptoms described initially.
