Thanks for taking the time to report this bug. Certainly as root you should be able to attach devices to lxcbr0.
Could you please 1. show the result of 'ifconfig -a' and 'brctl show' 2. do 'sudo lxc-start -n Ubuntu-12.04.5-i386 -f -l trace -o lxc.debug' and attach lxc.debug here 3. try: sudo lxc-create -t download -n p1 -- -d ubuntu -r trusty -a i386 sudo lxc-start -n p1 and let us know whether that succeeds. ** Changed in: lxc (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1406925 Title: lxc-start fails due to insufficient permission for creating netdev To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1406925/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
