[Lxc-users] Alternative to Debian Testing? No Prompt upon lxc-console execution

My problem is, I need squeeze in my containers and if anyone knows of a
path for doing this that has
some good instructions, I'd really appreciate knowing where that is.
This is my first query to the mail list and if I am not suppose to ask a
Debian Testing question,
please let me know...
So far, the only way I have found that offers squeeze, is using Debian
Testing, which appears to work
just fine, and I can ping the container both from my host and my LAN,
but...when I try to enter the
container via lxc-console, it doesn't take me to the container's prompt
command line....the situation
looks to me like probably a simple programming syntax error of some
kind. Below is what happens...
root at server:/# lxc-start -n vm101 -d
root at server:/# lxc-info -n vm101
state: RUNNING
pid: 7103
root at server:/# lxc-console -n vm101
Type <Ctrl+a q> to exit the console
*<<----- There is no Prompt here, and all that is visible is the above
instruction...and I can type stuff.
However, by pressing **<Ctrl+a q> I am immediately
returned to my host prompt, like so...*
root at server:/#
root at server:/# lxc-info -n vm101
state: RUNNING
pid: 7103
root at server:/#
I tried nano /usr/bin/lxc-console hoping to be able to find the
offending program line as I speculate it is near or at the echoed
instruction, but opening the program I think I am seeing binary
characters in the file. I was wondering (wishful hoping) if there are
any potential commands I might use to just break past the point that
hangs after I give the lxc-console command and get a prompt that belongs
to the container? Or some other route to obtaining squeeze...
Thanks for your thoughts!
