<div>Thanks. I thought I will run a script on the container startup which will do the install and other steps... Hopefully the hooks will allow me to do so.</div>

<div dir="ltr">If I want to do something like that (i.e. when bootstrapping custom linux system as LXC guest), I just chroot into newly-created container root and do the "apt-get install ...".

<div>This method uses host's network connection, but it requires container's /etc/resolv.conf correctly configured. Also, if you are using subuid/gids, pay attention when you do this procedure (generally before uidmapshift step).

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is there a way to install packages (like bridge utils etc) on some template like ubuntu while creating it via lxc-create? I read somewhere about --packages command but don’t seem to find it anywhere. I want to create a container and install packages on
it via a script without manually having to login to the container.</div>

</div>
<div>Thanks</div>
