This patch is a bit crude but does the job: using it I built a container and it works, though the arch is reported quirkily ;) sudo arch=i386 lxc-create -n lucid-test-lp -t lucid-lp -f /etc/lxc/local.conf sudo lxc-start -n lucid-test-lp root@lucid-test-lp:~# arch x86_64 root@lucid-test-lp:~# dpkg --print-architecture i386
