Well, you can try:
- editing the template manually, see why it uses debian's mirrors
instead of ubuntu. OR
- try using "lxc-create ... -- --mirror=... --security-mirror=..."
(and point it to a working ubuntu mirror. OR
- use the download template. 1.0.3 should have it already. It should
give you a list of distro/version to choose from.
