It should. Which is why I thought you edit the config file. Try:
- adding lxc.network.veth.pair=test-e0
- run "ip link show" on the host, and for every interface that starts
with a "veth", do "ip link del" on that interface. That is, assuming
you don't currently have any containers or anything that uses veth
running.
- try the second link, which create the rootfs and config file by hand
instead of using a script.
