href="https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/getting-started-cli/">https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/getting-started-cli/</a> </b>as it stands right now it seems likes a better source for a first time test install on LXD.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>I wish there was only one source location for all documents on how to get going with LXD.</div><div><br></div><div>While it's still so early and not much else on the web yet via google to find on the topic.</div><div><br></div><div>But having blog notes and even notes on Ubuntu's site seems like not the best place or way to get folks going on the code if it's old and outdated calls all ready.</div><div><br></div><div>No better way to burn out any one is to have documents from what one assumes is one of authority and for it not to work and then have no idea how else to get it going.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Well that's might thoughts on it.</div><div><br></div><div>Personally LXC to me just seems like the right way to solve this problem vs all the other ideas that are now floating about.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><b>Finally I did just located this <a href="https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/master/specs/command-line-user-experience.md">https://github.com/lxc/lxd/blob/master/specs/command-line-user-experience.md</a></b></div><div><br></div><div>Which for anyone looking for the command calls list here they are.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Hopefully this is making some sense and I am happy to pass along what I found out as I first time installer on LDX as I have about 8 pages of notes from the steps I tried.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Honestly I figured maybe part of the time I might of been missing some key call some and then it choked no idea for sure right now.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div> But in these Wild, West early days that's darn easy to do and soild good docs to follow when the guys are cranking on getting the code out at the same time is tough.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>-Kevin</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><div><div>On May
