Good to know. Here's a little How-To, to install a stock kernel without the need to re-image it (in case you had everything "just so"): http://forum.ovh.co.uk/showthread.php?t=5616
Ubuntu LFS - KVM VM creation not working, help?

Solved - this is an OVH specific problem.
OVH suggest that we use the 'ovh kernel', which is a special build of the linux kernel they have tested against their computers.
The OVH kernel lacks some capability needed to mount proc in a chroot (at least in the way the ubuntu vm builder was trying to do it).
FIX - request a re-image of your system, select the kernel that comes with the OS, not the OVH one.

So, I post this here in case it is OVH specific, although most likely I am simply doing something wrong.
I am trying to create a VM to run under KVM using the Ubuntu VM builder script. The purpose of this VM is to be a container I can install Zimbra in.
When I run e.g.
I get the error:
And if I paste
I get a permission denied error.
I'm running as root on a totally fresh install of Ubuntu precise (LTS).
Anyone seen this before?
How do I make it work?
