hmm, strange. I have build lxc-2.0.9 this way and tried all 
variants. The only way I got it up running was by installing
libpam-cgfs. But this has dependencies to systemd and cgmanager.

Although I still use sysv-init, systemd got installed and starting
the container works. But I have now an cgmanager installed and
runnig, too.

But how do I get it up and running without cgmanager? I think,
I need a process to setup the cgroups accordingly...

The pam modules libpam-cgm and libpam-cgfs require cgmanager
to run, too. And is there a way to avoid using systemd?

Best regards

Dirk
