[Users] Problem starting Ubuntu 8.04

[Abhinav Lele]

Hi,
I am trying to run a ubuntu 8.04 template on

Debian Stable (Etch) with 2.6.18 kernel.
I compiled the kernel with openvz patch and have downloaded
ubuntu-8.04-minimal template from the openvz site.

I created a new VE by the following commands

# vzctl create 111 --ostemplate ubuntu-8.04-i386-minimal
# vzctl set 111 --ipadd 10.0.0.1 --save
# vzctl set 111 --hostname u8 --save
# vzctl start 111

But i always get

VPSID 111 exist mounted down

when i use vzctl status 111

What could be the problem ?

Any help/pointers would be very helpful
