[Users] Gentoo baselayout2 doesn't start inside container

Wed Jun 25 02:47:42 EDT 2008

Hi John,

Thank you for your feedback. Because it works for you, I've started 
looking at it again, and I have finally found the issue.
I was previously using baselayout-vserver on my Gentoo containers. When 
I upgrade that to baselayout2, /etc/inittab gets uninstalled and never 
installed again. When upgrading from baselayout1 to baselayout2 in my 
Virtuozzo container the file was preserved correctly.
This is really great! Creating a new Gentoo container/template is now as 
simple as downloading a stage3 tarball, upgrade it to baselayout2 and 
then boot it.
Thanks!

Regards,
Arjan
