To install and setup LXC (Linux Containers) on Fedora 26, follow these steps:
- Install the lxc and lxc-templates packages:
sudo dnf install lxc lxc-templates
- Create the required directories and set permissions:
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/lxc
sudo chmod 755 /var/lib/lxc
- Start the lxc service and enable it to start at boot:
sudo systemctl start lxc
sudo systemctl enable lxc
Once the installation is complete, you can use the lxc-create command to create a new container. For example, to create an Ubuntu container, use the following command:
sudo lxc-create -t download -n <container-name> -- --dist ubuntu --release xenial --arch amd64
You can start the container using the lxc-start command and stop it using the lxc-stop command.
Note: Before creating a container, you should verify that your system has the necessary resources (e.g. memory, disk space, etc.) and that the firewall is configured to allow traffic to the containers.
