What feature regarding containers would you like to know more about?

Thanks for your reply. I use containers (via = LXC) as lightweight Virtual Machines
as such I can emulate my use= of LXC with guix already using a VM.

The dif= ference I see between guix containers and LXC is that in LXC the container<= /div>
has its own network device and an IP. What I usually do with LXC:=

a) start the lxc container
b)= ssh into it and

proceed as if I was in a Xen Virt= uam Machine.


Have nice day!
