When I try to create a container inside a container I get an error:

root at OUTER $ lxc-create -n INNER -f net.conf -t natty
debootstrap is /usr/sbin/debootstrap
Checking cache download in /var/cache/lxc/natty/rootfs-amd64 ... 
Downloading ubuntu natty minimal ...
          [...snip...]
I: Extracting xz-utils...
I: Extracting zlib1g...
Failed to download the rootfs, aborting.
Failed to download 'ubuntu natty base'
failed to install ubuntu natty
failed to execute template 'natty'

Any way to nest containers?

Thanks,
Jesse
