Thanks for this. I fully agree that it is not necessary to start at all when upgrading or installing. No virtual server has been started anyway so it should only be started later.

You have to patch the kernel with the kernel-patch-openvz package, so that is how you know it. :) I have updated the description of the package to make it clear.
