Sharing the portage-tree: Is the location /etc/vz/vps.mount really right? It doesn't work here on my system. --85.180.143.191 11:57, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

I changed the Howto accordingly --85.180.143.190 13:27, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] vps.mount and vps.umount

I had trouble with vps.umount - it claimed the dir was not mounted. This link here explains it

http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=22103&

A solution:

• don't use a vps.umount (since openvz apparently automatically umounts it)
• in vps.mount use the '-n' option to mount so the mtab is not updated
• I also included a 'mkdir -p /vz/root/%{VEID}/usr/portage before mount to make new VE handling easier
