Hi there,
I am using libvirt with lxc to create fedora 16 & 18 containers on fedora 18 host.
first I did the setup with libvirt 1.0.3 and everything worked fine, then after upgrading
to libvirt 1.0.4, I could not create character device on the guests :
Test on the guest1 :
# ls -l /dev

Libvirt does not allow the 'mknod' capability within containers.
Any devices that have been assigned to the container will have
device nodes pre-created in /dev by libvirt itself.
