At this moment using Ubuntu 12.04 would probably be easier. It just works. https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/lxc.html ... or see simplified instructions on my wiki: http://wiki.1tux.org/wiki/Lxc/Installation > > I have a host running fedora 16, and I want to install a lxc container > that I can run some apps in it.

However AFAIK you can't (yet?) have a container which uses systemd, so even when you can use F16 as host, you can't use it as guest container. > I tried the following steps: 1) install libcgroup, 2) install lxc, both > the two are downloaded from sf.net. > > By run the lxc-fedora under the lxc's templates > directory(/usr/local/lib/lxc/templates), it seems that the container is > installed successfully.

I'm not sure about F16. I'm guessing the problem is that your container accesses the same tty as the host. Again, I recommend to use ubuntu for host. You can then have fedora (up to f14), rhel/centos, ubuntu, and other sysvinit-or-upstart-based-OS as guest, -- Fajar ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
