Installing an ISO on a linux container

[FrankB]

I decided I wanted to test out how asterisk runs inside an lxc container. How latency is affected and what tweaks can be made to correct those problems.

So I picked up a copy of freepbx and threw the ISO in the proper /var/lib/vz/template/iso directory and it showed up just fine.

But when I went to create the LXC container I realized that I could not select the ISO to boot up from.
What is the procedure to make that happen?

ISO installation CDs are designed for full virtualization. You simply cannot use them for containers.

As far as I know, all the VoIP software needs precise timing and often associated kernel modules, which cannot be easily integrated in LXC if you still want a stable and secure system. Just stick to a KVM for VoIP - less of a hassle.
