LXC: raw to system files?

[sjau]

Hi thereI just setup a new server with proxmox 4 and I see that that now LXC is being used.I wonder, is it possible with LXC also to get the "container" files as normal files and not as .raw file onto the host like it used to be with OpenVZ?

you can do it, with specify size=0 for the disk.

(but they are no quota like openvz in this case)

Or you simply use ZFS (we use ZFS subvols for containers).

That works. But then I tried to install some binary that requires sudo. So I did install sudo. But when I tried to install that binary it complained about not being able to edit the /etc/sudoers file. I even chmodded /etc/sudoers to 777 and tried to run that installation as root:

Do you want to copy executable files to /usr/local/bin directory? (Login as root is needed.)
