Hi,

    Where do I get the latest kernel sources to test out the latest on the
containers?

Thanks

Hi,

generally go to lxc.sf.net and click on 'Patches'.  Currently the latest
patchset is at:

	http://lxc.sourceforge.net/patches/2.6.26/2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1/

Download the patch or the broken-out patchset, and apply on top of
2.6.26-rc5-mm3.  And please let us know how it goes!

thanks,

Another dumb question...

Should I apply the patch against vanilla 2.6.26 kernel or apply it to the mm
branch?

Thanks in advance

      I am having issues applying the patch set (2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1) where
the patch fails for many files.

Here are the steps followed
1) Successfully installed 2.6.25-rc5 vanilla
2) Successfully applied patch 2.6.26-rc5-mm3 patch
3) Errors applying patch set 2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1-broken-out

Are you trying to apply the .tar file ? 

Can you unzip and try with the following file instead

http://lxc.sourceforge.net/patches/2.6.26/2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1/2.6.26-rc5-mm3-lxc1.patch.gz
