Hello all:

have started testing out the Jessie build but hit an issue. First, here is
what I have installed on a vanilla Jessie system:

root@jessie-test:~# dpkg -l |grep vserver
ii libvserver0 0.30.216-pre3062-jessie0.1-1 amd64
       dynamic libraries for util-vserver
ii linux-headers-vserver-3.18-beng 3.18.4-2.3.7.1+jessie1 amd64
       A metapackage which installs the latest Linux-Vserver patched 3.18
linux-headers package, BenG's build.
ii linux-image-vserver-3.18-beng 3.18.4-2.3.7.1+jessie1 amd64
       A metapackage which installs the latest Linux-Vserver patched 3.18
linux-image package, BenG's build.
ii util-vserver 0.30.216-pre3062-jessie0.1-1 amd64
       utilities for managing Linux-VServer guests
ii util-vserver-build 0.30.216-pre3062-jessie0.1-1 amd64
       tools which can be used to build vservers
ii util-vserver-core 0.30.216-pre3062-jessie0.1-1 amd64
       core utilities of util-vserver
ii util-vserver-sysv 0.30.216-pre3062-jessie0.1-1 amd64
       initscripts for util-vserver
ii vserver-debiantools 0.8.1 all
       Tools to manage Debian virtual servers

I then rebooted the system and vserver-stat responded okay. Then went on
to build a guest:

vserver base_jessie build \
 -m debootstrap \
 --context 40001 \
 --hostname vserver1.mydomain.com \
 --interface eth0:192.168.1.84/24 \
 -- -d jessie -m http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian

that completed fine so I then went on to start it and this is what happens:

root@jessie-test:~# vserver base_jessie start
Using makefile-style concurrent boot in runlevel 3.
Starting enhanced syslogd: rsyslogd.
Starting periodic command scheduler: cron.

root@jessie-test:~# vserver-stat
WARNING: can not access /proc/uptime. Usually, this is caused by
         procfs-security. Please read the FAQ for more details
         http://linux-vserver.org/Proc-Security
open("/proc/uptime"): No such file or directory
root@jessie-test:~# uptime
Error: /proc must be mounted
  To mount /proc at boot you need an /etc/fstab line like:
      proc /proc proc defaults
  In the meantime, run "mount proc /proc -t proc"

Would appear that /proc is being wiped out. How may I resolve the issue
please ?

Thanks, Phil
