[lxc-users] Yum hangs on CentOS 7 [Host] -> CentOS [Guest] privileged container

[Rahul Rege]

Forgot to update it.

I think the problem was with the systemd-journalctl consuming 99.9% CPU
leading to the hangs. I retested it with some of the packages it was
failing for and as long as I had it killed, everything works ok.



Thanks
