I also encountered this problem using the meta data rpm of the openvz site.

I noticed that unlike the centos 4 meta data package, the centos 5 one was installing the udev package, and that simply disabling udev from running fixed the pty issue.

However I wanted udev not to be installed in the first place, so I added the following line to the bottom of "install-post" in the meta data directory:

$RPM --root $VE_ROOT -e udev --nodeps

When creating the CentOS 5 meta data package, I did not specifically add the udev package to the template. It must have been picked up by yum because of a dependency.

I'm wondering why it's causing problems for some though. Looking at /sbin/start_udev in a minimal VPS, I'm not sure it should really even do anything considering that /sys in my VPS is empty. As I understand it, udev only mounts devices that are listed in /sys, no? Perhaps /sys is not always empty?
