error when starting a container.

"lxc-start Invalid argument"

"lxc-execute -n foo -f /usr/local/etc/lxc/lxc-macvlan.conf /bin/bash"

"[syserr] lxc_start:96: Invalid argument - failed to fork into a new

namespace"

read the lxc man page about kernel version prereq :) most probably

your kernel is not configured to support the container options you

Error:

------

On Ubuntu 8.10, if using the cvs source code rather than

the provided tarball. Then make is failing with many errors

similar to the line below:

==========

../../libtool: line 810: X--tag=CC: command not found

==========

Answer:

-------

This is related to a compatibility problem between the shipped

config/ltmain.sh and the libtool version installed on your

Ubuntu 8.10 machine.

You have to replace the config/ltmain.sh from cvs head by the one

from your libtool package, make some cleaning and reissue all

the build process:

==========

cd <your_lxc_working_dir>

cp -f /usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh config/

rm -f libtool

./bootstrap && ./configure && make && sudo make install

==========
