(Get the code!)
I suppose we should be discussing LXC support in current Lucid's Linux and upcoming OpenVZ support in 2.6.32 which probably will be ported to Lucid (officially or not) very soon.
And what "Better virtualisation technologies" are? KVM? Xen?
They are totally different beasts.
There is no permanent workaround, for example installing package with dependency for udev will ruin the VPS.
New init scheme is the reason for inability to boot under containers.
Upstart is major player here, and developers, with all due respect, can't just ignore the situation they created.
I am really happy to see my Laptop booting Lucid under 30sec, but I also have much more of virtualized instances.
Do you aware of how many Ubuntu insances are running inside containers? My guess is close to a million.
And what do you think people will do, after realizing they can't upgrade/install?
Definitely not praising Canonical.
I really hope Canonical will not endorse such a nonchalance.
