Ok, I just realize I forget to commit the patch to output the console to
a file :)
I did the change right now and will release a 0.7.4-rc1 version in a moment.
Please can you check that works for you ?
lxc-start -n <name> -o lxc.log -l DEBUG -c console.log
or
lxc-start -n <name> -o lxc.log -l DEBUG -c /dev/null
or
lxc-start -n <name> -o logs -l DEBUG -c logs
Thanks for reporting the problem
