[lxc-users] Use rootfs images to avoid lxc-create

[Ranjib Dey]

if you are using lxc from master you can use the download template directly
to grab pregenerated images from images.linuxcontainer.org[1]

also, it will be helpful if you can share the mount error you got while
starting the container, it should work, as long as the config file is
appropriate
