Hello Mike,

> 1) Are you running this container unprivileged?
I checked what it means to run a container unprivileged. I think I run
it privileged, I am logged in as root on the host machine, and I am
just trying to start with lxc-start -n myFedora.

> 2) Have you tried creating the container using the -t fedora template?
I tried lxc-create -t fedora -n myFedoraTest
Unfortunately, the result is the same.

I indeed get the exact same output as the OP.

On the host:
uname -a
Linux j80074.servers.jiffybox.net 3.2.0-60-virtual #91-Ubuntu SMP Wed
Feb 19 04:13:28 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The LXC host (Ubuntu) is a virtual machine running in a XEN environment.
I would understand if that is not possible, but it is possible since
Debian 7 and CentOS 6 containers run fine on this host.

Thanks,
  Timotheus
