I have now upgraded to VS2.0-rc4 and I still have the same result.
I go to start the vserver and it stalls. Again these are the processes
running
pts/0 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash /usr/local/sbin/vserver monitor start
5677 pts/0 S+ 0:00 /usr/local/lib/util-vserver/lockfile
/var/lock/vserver.usrlocaletcvserversmonitor.startup
5694 pts/0 D+ 0:00 /usr/local/lib/util-vserver/chroot-cat /etc/mtab
Here is what is reported in syslog when I start it as well:
idr_remove called for id=639838 which is not allocated.
[<c01d983f>] sub_remove+0xef/0x100
[<c017edbe>] invalidate_list+0x2e/0xe0
[<c017eec5>] invalidate_inodes+0x55/0x70
[<c01d987f>] idr_remove+0x2f/0xc0
[<c016abc6>] kill_anon_super+0x36/0x50
[<c016a141>] deactivate_super+0x61/0x80

[<c016de1b>] sys_stat64+0x1b/0x40
[<c01821a5>] sys_oldumount+0x15/0x20
[<c0103123>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb
Any ideas on what I can try next to see if this will work?
Thanks,
Jon
