Your problem is familiar, but I can't remember what my solution to it was. Now it may be that Ubuntu has been patched to fix some of these problems - I don't know. But I would recommend you try setting your init option to /bin/bash, and then (if you are able to get a console) start the services you want manually. If you are still not able to get a console, the first thing I personally would try is different kernel versions (newer *or* older). I have experienced a number of different issues with LXC, but I haven't had time to write all of them up as bug reports, only some of them, so if you are able to file reproducible bug reports that would be great. -- Robin
