Hey,

When you start the vserver instance, try debug it, you will find when you start the
vserver on a tty that it prints information about which upstart-job that is actually
the problem. For help to debug look at http://linux-vserver.org/Upstart_issues#Notes_for_debugging.
Herbert may have eased up the debug-handling since I last dealt with it, in that case
please do fill in.

Cheers, Josef

If you want to run LUCID guests on vserver, you need to take a look at
the following pages:

http://linux-vserver.org/Upstart_issues

http://wiki.raceme.org/dokuwiki/tof:computer:vserver:upstart_ubuntu_lucid

You have to disable services not only in "/etc/init.d" (the sysv type)
but also in "/etc/init" (the upstart type).

I've not been able to get LUCID running successfully on lenny, although
I've only tried with the stock 2.6.26 kernel.  I do have LUCID guests
running on Squeeze, however, with the 2.6.32 kernel (which you are also
using), so perhaps you'll have better luck.

I'll post another message with my remaining LUCID guest issues.
