I hadn't considered that aspect of it before.

NOW THAT is something else I needed to know about! Thank you very very much! Learned something new. This whole thing has been a massive learning experience getting this container kick started. > Could be some packages are not fully upgraded to this concept in F17.

As it turns out, the kernel has had some of our patches applied that I wasn't aware of vis-a-vis reboot/halt and this should no longer be an issue. I'm still struggling with the tmpfs on /dev thing and have run into a catch-22 with regards to that. I can mount tmpfs on /dev just fine and can populate it just fine in a post mount hook but, then, we're trying to mount a devpts file system on /dev/pts before we've had a chance to populate it and it's then crashing on the mount. Sigh...
