I understand the debian image is not working properly (or doesn't exist). Using sudo lxc-create -n debian01 -t download we get the list of valid distro/release/arch available, and specifying: Distribution: debian Release: sid Architecture: ppc64el works on debian and on ubuntu !.
Downloading the image index Downloading the rootfs Downloading the metadata The image cache is now ready Unpacking the rootfs --- You just created a Debian container (release=sid, arch=ppc64el, variant=default) To enable sshd, run: apt-get install openssh-server For security reason, container images ship without user accounts and without a root password. Use lxc-attach or chroot directly into the rootfs to set a root password or create user accounts. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1624028 Title: lxc create using debian template fails on ppc64el To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxc/+bug/1624028/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
