[Bug 1086612] Re: plymouth isn't working in lxc containers

[Stéphane Graber]

The log above is from a simple raring 64bit lxc container (lxc-create -n
p1 -t ubuntu -- --release raring --arch amd64) started with lxc-start
(lxc-start -n p1) with the current tty attached to the /dev/console
equivalent in lxc.
