Hi,
I'm running OpenVZ on 2.6.26-2-openvz-amd64 (Debian Lenny) with vzctl version 3.0.22.

I have several Debian CTs; the Lenny (stable) ones boot fine.
Suddenly, my Squeeze (testing) one won't get past "init [2]" anymore.

vzctl start shows no errors.

         2          1 running 192.168.0.2     myhost                      


I can see from the host:
root     19749  0.0  0.0  10332   756 ?        Ss   10:09   0:00 init [2]      


When I strace -p 19749 it shows me an infinite loop of:
[gettimeofday({1275294022, 71148}, NULL) = 0
stat("/dev/initctl", {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
fstat(10, {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
stat("/dev/initctl", {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
select(11, [10], NULL, NULL, {5, 0})    = 0 (Timeout)


I already tried deleting /dev/* completely. After that it automatically creates the initctl device node, though the problem remains. I also tried copying the contents of /dev/ from a working CT, no luck either.
