[Lxc-users] Lxc with Slackware 14 64bit will not start.

[Giuseppe Tofoni]

Hello,

First thanks for your great work.

I am a happy user of LXC with Slackware 13.37 and lxc-0.7.4.2, but
with slack64 14.0 and lxc-0.8.0-rc2 I get the following errors:

lxc-start: No such file or directory - failed to exec /sbin/init
lxc-start: invalid sequence number 1. expected 2
lxc-start: failed to spawn 'lxc_999'
lxc-start: No such file or directory - failed to remove cgroup
'/cgroup//lxc/lxc_999'

My setup is:

cd lxc-0.8.0-rc2
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-config-path=/etc/lxc
--with-rootfs-path=/vz/lxc
make && make install

cd /etc/lxc/lxc_999
