In a fresh raring instance I mounted a btrfs disk on /mnt, and did

	lxc-create -t ubuntu -B btrfs -P /mnt -n c1
	for i in `seq 1 10`; do
		lxc-clone -s -p /mnt -o c1 -n x$i
	done
	for i in `seq 1 10`; do
		lxc-start -d -P /mnt -n x$i
	done

	Then connected to two of the containers with lxc-console,
		lxc-console -P /mnt -n x2
		lxc-console -P /mnt -n x9

	both were up and had unique ip addresses.

Again this was a raring instance with ppa:ubuntu-lxc/daily installed.
