I have a server running lxc v1
I have a container on that server called “git”
I’ve tarred that up as follows:
cd /var/lib/lxc/ ; tar -czf git.tgz git
So, git.tgz has contents like
# tar -tvzf git.tgz
drwxrwx— root/root 0 2021-08-30 08:58 git/
dr-xr-xr-x root/root 0 2021-08-30 08:58 git/rootfs/
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2019-11-27 11:21 git/rootfs/bin → usr/bin
etc.
I then created a metadata.yaml file with contents
creation_date: 1630706053
properties:
architecture: “x86_64”
description: “Git”
os: “centos”
release: “centos”
and tarred that up with
tar zcf metadata.tar.gz metadata.yaml
I then imported all of that with
lxc image import metadata.tar.gz git.tgz --alias git-test
The output of that was
Image imported with fingerprint: 8e1d85f72b0c788cc50f4f57ea1f573467d6733c524986f12b1353997a2e0784
My understanding is that I next need to launch that image, so I did
lxc launch git-test
which gave me the output
Creating the instance

Doesn’t seem that I’m the first to get the ‘No such file or directory - Failed to exec “/sbin/init”’ error .
However, looking through how some of those were solved doesn’t seem overly relevant to my circumstances.
Anyone got any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.
