Thanks for the info - I have visited that thread previously. I do not know
of such a file for ubuntu, so I did add the commands to /etc/rc.local and
waited a few minutes, I also tried etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf

Again I get the same error. Could there be something conflicting in the
/var/lib/vz/private/VZID/ folder? I did try many things to populate device
files. Also the previous attempt that worked was using udev, and I only had
to run one command and change some perms to get it going.

Thanks
