Probably you set:
<os>
<type>exe</type>
<init>/init</init>
</os>
right? If so, could you try "/bin/sh" instead of "/init"?
Thanks. /bin/bash got me to console. But the init sequence for my
container is different from the one started using lxc tools with
/bin/bash. So I changed it to /sbin/init and now I can get the usual
login prompt. Fun doesn't end there. Am prompted for login but the
password is never accepted whereas I can login using the same password
(as root) in the container started using lxc tools. So eventually am
not able to login :-(
