Hi all,

This could help my previous mail.

I wanted to create new guest of F8.
But then util-vserver on my box couldn't create a guest of that
distribution.

That page in qutation meant to do this.
cp -a /usr/lib/util-vserver/distribution/fc6 /etc/
vserver/.distribution/f8
Then I changed the yum configuration for new distribution.

After doing that, any warning or caution didn't appear when vserver
created a guest of new distribution.
But it apparently had failed to create it because status of the guest
was still "stopped" after starting the vserver guest.

Thanks.
