[Users] How to mount devpts?

[Jun OKAJIMA]

I tried to use Ubuntu ISO image as VE,
and failed.

What I did is below.
In short, mounting devpty on host (hardware node) side FS
is okay, but VE side FS is not okay.

Any help?

1. Install Ubuntu 8.04 hardy to VMware.
2. Install OpenVZ kernel and vzctl and vzquota from apt-line.
3. Reboot with OpenVZ kernel.
and I did like this.
First, insert Hardy ISO image to VMware virtual CD-ROM drive.
[HN]# vzctl set 777
[HN]# mount -t squashfs -o loop,ro /media/cdrom01 \
      /var/lib/private/777
[HN]# vzctl start 777
      -> OK.
[HN]# vzctl enter 777
      -> Fail. 777 does not have devpty.
"Unable to open pty: No such file or directory"
[HN]# vzctl exec 777 mount -v -t devpts none /dev/pts
      -> Fail.
     "mount: none already mounted or /dev/pts busy"
[HN]# vzctl exec 777 ls -la /dev/pty
      -> Nothing there.
[HN]# vzctl exec 777 mount -v -t devpty none /mnt
      -> also fails. The problem occurs on all dirs.
[HN]# grep devpty /proc/filesystems
      -> Okay.
[HN]# cat /proc/mounts | grep devpty
      -> Okay.
[HN]# ls -la /dev/devpty (checking host FS)
      -> Okay.
[HN]# mkdir /tmp/devpty_test
[HN]# mount -t devpty none /tmp/devpty_test
[HN]# ls -la /tmp/devpty_test
      -> Okay.
         On the host system, devpts works well.
