FYI, i don't have switch to "plain" init style but i have used a recommandation of bertl (mixed with tty inside the guest) In the host inittab i have added 5:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/vserver zepto exec /sbin/mingetty tty5 6:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/vserver yocto exec /sbin/mingetty tty6 This seems to work fine. Thanks a lot, Sylvain Le Gall
