OK sure, I've put up a Virtualization Howto at http://www.linux-vserver.org/index.php?page=VirtualizeHowto
It's not complete, mainly just a copy of my email at the moment. Feel free to improve it =) Thanks for the ulimit info. I assume newer tool versions will put the S in by default so I'll remove the note to add it in a few weeks. Also I'll try out the per context quotas and put some notes on that into the howto.
