Hello, you wrote:

| Ahem... I thought this fact is mentioned in docs: http://wiki.openvz.org/Download_live_CD#Limitations
But you're right it isn't mentioned on the page, that appears after CD boot. Well, can you please add this information to http://wiki.openvz.org/Basic_operations_in_OpenVZ?
Thanks in advance!

You can use this article: http://wiki.openvz.org/Creating_OpenVZ_LiveCD. You don't need to repeat all actions, if you have OpenVZ livecd. Only extract KNOPPIX compressed image that is on CD, chroot to it and increase shmpages default limit (it's located somethere in vzctl files).
As concerns DHCP. You should use veth instead venet device in VE and then everything is as usual: dhcp-client in VE.
If you will have additional questions, please post them as separate threads, because initial problem is cleared.
Thank you,
Vasily.
