Comment 12 for bug 1031065

Steve,
I've also now tried your mountall in an lxc chroot, and it did not resolve my issue there either.
I've set up a lxc container as described above, commented out the 'start networking' and then:
$ sudo ln -sf console /path/to/rootfs/dev/kmsg
$ sudo lxc-start --name=$REL-amd64 --console console.log -- /sbin/init --verbose

The console.log is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1199472/
