Hi Michal

Thanks. I did test it out with lxc driver and <readonly/> works fine. I would like to send a pull request/ patch for the documentation, however, I am having a tough time figuring out the source file the domain xml reference section.

http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt-appdev-guide.git;a=tree;f=en-US;h=e620f903954760dfecf12c79981f8364976584fc;hb=HEAD

I even tried to lookup form the gitweb interface - no luck. Which file is creating XML reference section?

Regards

Harish

That's a bug in our docs. Going through the code it seems like it should
work on LXC too. Mind trying out and posting a documentation patch?
