Are you installing mysql in clean state or you are upgrading an old 
install/config, because your warning  ("Using unique option prefix 
key_buffer instead of key_buffer_size is deprecated and will be removed 
in a future release. Please use the full name instead") happens with old 
/etc/my.cnf updated to mysql 5.5. I do:


  ~ > lxc launch ubuntu:14.04 mymy
Creating mymy
Starting mymy
  ~ > lxc exec mymy bash
root at mymy:~# apt update
....
root at mymy:~# apt install mysql-server
....
mysql start/running, process 3614
....
root at mymy:~#


the install process ask me for the initial password and mysql get 
installed, but this was from a clean state (my host is 16.04 LTS)
