[lxc-users] Error with lxc-execute on version 1.0.0.alpha1

[Santhosh Kokala]

I tried this

root at ubuntu:/var/lib/lxc/imap# cat /root/install/imap.conf       --> Created a container conf file with the mount points for proc,sysfs and devpts but I still see the errors

May the rootfs be specified using a small configuration file?

    # cat /tmp/dummy-lxc-config
    lxc.rootfs = /tmp/dummy-lxc/
    # lxc-create -f /tmp/dummy-lxc-config -n dummy

Or something like that?

Also, isn't lxc-create failing without a template parameter related to this issue?

Thanks,
