There is a critical regression in the default behavior with systemd 232 which prevents lxc, docker, and opencontainers from working properly out of the box. The change was already committed to the systemd 233 code stream.
The failure looks like what is shown below. % lxc-start -n container -F lxc-start: cgfsng.c: parse_hierarchies: 825 Failed to find current cgroup for controller 'name=systemd' lxc-start: cgfsng.c: all_controllers_found: 431 no systemd controller mountpoint found lxc-start: start.c: lxc_spawn: 1082 failed initializing cgroup support lxc-start: start.c: __lxc_start: 1332 failed to spawn 'container' lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 344 The container failed to start. lxc-start: lxc_start.c: main: 348 Additional information can be obtained by setting the --logfile and --logpriority options. Commit 843d5baf6aad6c53fc00ea8d95d83209a4f92de1 from the systemd git has been backported and can be dropped in a future uprev.
