after i updated my ubuntu server to 8.04 in order to use the ubuntu openvz-kernel (vmlinuz-2.6.24-22-openvz) rather than my old developer version 2.6.22-ovz005 i couldn't log into my virtual boxes via
vzctl enter 102
as it claimed, that the pty doesn't exist.
vzctl enter 101
enter into VE 101 failed
Unable to open pty: No such file or directory
also openssh wouldn't start. said something about "PRNG is not seeded". (apache and thus networking works by the way)
starting the server with the old kernel works just fine, although it looks like the vzctl tools have been upgraded to the current ubuntu version (3.0.22 - can't remember which version I used before).
so I figure it must have something to do with the new kernel-version. does anyone have experience in using old virtual boxes on current kernels?
as it is quite late I'm going to try to install a new image tomorrow, to see if it's the kernel itself that is flawed or if it has something to do with the interaction new kernel/old virtual box. will post results soon.
thoughts are very welcome...
good night,
joseph
ps: the virtual box is a ubuntu 6.06 LTS. could the kernel be just to new for the old system to work out of the box?
edit: I doubt that the udev error is responsible, as I didn't update anything in the VPS and it still works in combination with the older kernel.
