LXC will be by default in Lucid. Here's a nice page from one of my colleagues that explains how to do it: http://stgraber.org/category/lxc > The problem is, that i can not use ubuntu karmic in the container (see > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/484240 ) so i have > to update the host system but there is no openvz kernel available. We have the same problem here, even with LXC. There's a problem with init in Karmic. If you chroot in /var/lib/vz/ and do an apt dist-upgrade on the current Lucid packages, it should work, at least for testing purposes. If you need stable containers, use a Hardy guest. -- ubuntu-server mailing list ubuntu-server@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam

openvz kernel wih lucid?
Hi, i use openvz with ubuntu 8.04 (LTS) on my server. All the newer releases have no openvz kernel. Will be openvz available with ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)? The problem is, that i can not use ubuntu karmic in the container (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/484240 ) so i have to update the host system but there is no openvz kernel available.
