<p>When I've tried installing LXC for the first time (mine was a squeeze too), the instructins in the second link has guided me well. </p>

To install lxc and then disabled the above testing repositories.<br>
<br>
Also, the notes that I found telling me to use the testing
repositories didn't mention <br>
the modifications you listed or to use the lxc-create command, so I
had tried to implement <br>
it like I had done for the lenny container earlier. <br>
<br>
By the way, are there any step by step instructions anywhere?<br>
<br>
And just to be clear, are you saying I need to install wheezy on my
Host Node, then add the Testing repositories <br>
to get a working squeeze container?<br>

<pre>You must have:
* "lxc.tty = ... " in your lxc config file (possibly in
/var/lib/lxc/containername/config)
* console in your continer rootfs: (possibly in
/var/lib/lxc/containername/rootfs/)
You can create this by something like this
# cd /var/lib/lxc/containername/rootfs/
# mknod -m 666 /dev/tty1 c 4 1
# mknod -m 666 /dev/tty2 c 4 2
I assume you are using debian testing (wheezy), if you create new
containers like this command:
# sudo lxc-create -t debian -n containername
It asks you some questions and handles many conditions, like this one,
automatically.

<pre>My problem is, I need squeeze in my containers and if anyone knows of a path
for doing this that has
some good instructions, I'd really appreciate knowing where that is.
This is my first query to the mail list and if I am not suppose to ask a
Debian Testing question,
please let me know...
So far, the only way I have found that offers squeeze, is using Debian
Testing, which appears to work
just fine, and I can ping the container both from my host and my LAN,
but...when I try to enter the
container via lxc-console, it doesn't take me to the container's prompt
command line....the situation
looks to me like probably a simple programming syntax error of some kind.
Below is what happens...
root@server:/# lxc-start -n vm101 -d
root@server:/# lxc-info -n vm101
state: RUNNING
pid: 7103
root@server:/# lxc-console -n vm101
Type <Ctrl+a q> to exit the console
<<----- There is no Prompt here, and all that is visible is the above
instruction...and I can type stuff.
However, by pressing <Ctrl+a q> I am immediately returned to
my host prompt, like so...
root@server:/#
root@server:/# lxc-info -n vm101
state: RUNNING
pid: 7103
root@server:/#
I tried nano /usr/bin/lxc-console hoping to be able to find the offending
program line as I speculate it is near or at the echoed instruction, but
opening the program I think I am seeing binary characters in the file. I
was wondering (wishful hoping) if there are any potential commands I might
use to just break past the point that hangs after I give the lxc-console
command and get a prompt that belongs to the container? Or some other route
to obtaining squeeze...
Thanks for your thoughts!
