[Users] convert to ploop

[Nick Knutov]

Thanks, this is working.

For wiki - I did

find /etc/vz/conf/*.conf -type f -exec sed -i.bak
"s/DISKINODES/#DISKINODES/g" {} \;

VE=123 ; vzctl stop $VE ; vzctl convert $VE ; vzctl start $VE

Unfortunatly, I do not understand how to work with/edit MediaWiki and
I'm not sure on what page it's better to add this.
