after install of mageia via lxc (cauldron) it tells you the rootpassword is.... but this password is never set, since the call echo "root:$root_password" | chroot "$rootfs_path" chpasswd fails. The remote system doesn't have "chpasswd", so there is no (correct) root password set.
sorry, this is not correct: /etc/securetty is missing the entry console to login directly after the installation
Assigning to the kernel maintainers, because lxc has Group: System/Kernel and hardware CC'ing a bunch of committers

Source RPM: lxc-2.0.8-1.mga6.src.rpm => basesystem-6-0.4.mga6.src.rpm
basesystem-uml does not require setup. So some files are missing in /etc .
Err why do you use basesystem-uml???? You should use basesystem-minimal

from lxc-package in SOURCES/add-mga-support.patch to make mageia available to lxc: PKG_LIST="basesystem-uml locales locales-en" [..] echo "Downloading/installing Mageia minimal system ..." /usr/sbin/urpmi --no-suggests --ignorearch --root $INSTALL_ROOT --urpmi-root $INSTALL_ROOT --auto $PKG_LIST
If it is intended to use basesystem-minimal instead of -uml this package instead, I can do the upddate & packaging.
basesystem-uml should require basesystem-minimal

ok, thanks for the info, I'll do the update.

(In reply to David GEIGER from comment #10) > @Marc Krämer: > > What is the status now of this bug? fixed? not fixed? what should we do? Almost half a year later, no reply, so closing as OLD Marc, if this issue is still valid in Mageia 7 and/or 8-cauldron, then please reopen this report while changing "Version:" appropriately.
