[lxc-users] passthrough of usb 433mHz transceiver

[Serge Hallyn]

Don't know anything about it, but I'd try stracing the software
to see whether there are any EACESS or EPERMs or whether there
are any other paths under /dev or /sys which get ENOENT and
should be bind-mounted in.

Quoting JPS (mailbox at jsierink.nl):

> It is connected via usb and controls some domotica switches on the
> 433mHz frequency.

> In the domotica software is shows up as serial device on /dev/ttyUSB0

> lxc.mount.entry: /dev/ttyUSB0 dev/ttyUSB0 none bind,optional,create=file
