Installation on a OpenVZ VM

Having problems with the Gentoo Handbook? If you're still working your way through it, or just need some info before you start your install, this is the place. All other questions go elsewhere.

Installation on a OpenVZ VM

Hi!
My provider uses OpenVZ and I chose Debian 6 64bit (no gentoo on choices).
I want to install gentoo, and I followed instructions here: http://linux.arantius.com/how-to-instal ... openvz-vps
My system when unbootable and I had to reinstall an image.
Even serial console did not work.

I have never used a linux on VM. The writer of the above article did not talk about installing a kernel or a boot loader, so I didn't do it. Either way /boot directory was empty even in my Debian
His last rsync line caused some warnings: the /lib/init directory could not be removed and a symlink of lib->lib64 could not be created because of that.

Can you please give me hint of what to do or a link explaining how can this be done?[/url]

Solved.

Apparently the problem was that my /lib directory was not pointing to /lib64
