Here I am back from testing. Creating, starting and stopping a VE works
great. Then I did testing with LTP syscall Testing Suite on a native JS21
Blade and then inside a VE (with all capabilities except syspcap) that I
created from a selfmade FC6-ppc template.

Unfortunately some tests fail already on the native running FC6 with Kernel
2.6.18-028stab033:

swapon02, vmsplice01

And these tests fail inside a VE:

syslog12, ustat01, ustat02 + the two tests I mentionned above.

That means that the same tests fail inside a powerpc64 VE like in a x86 VE.
Thats a great effort, I guess, because we could say that OpenVZ runs
"stable" on powerpc64. Now I'll try to find out why these two tests fail
when they run natively.
