Ok. The --path to lxc-ubuntu is only meant to be used by lxc-create. I've
removed it (in precise, not in oneiric which I think you're on) from the help
list. I will add an option to lxc-create itself to specify where the rootfs
should be stored. It'll look like
lxc-create -t ubuntu -n p1 -f lxc.conf -B dir --rootfs /home/chm/lxc/p1
For now, I recommend you do it the old fashioned way: either symlink or
bind mount /home/chm/lxc to /var/lib/lxc:
rm -rf /var/lib/lxc
mkdir -p /home/chm/lxc
ln -s /home/chm/lxc /var/lib/lxc
Now just do
lxc-create -f lxc.conf -n p1 -t ubuntu
and the container will sit in your homedir.
