Do you want to continue [Y/n] So after the dist-upgrade i have the same problem like before adding Stéphane Grabers script: # vzctl enter 1234 enter into VE 1234 failed Unable to open pty: No such file or directory I can enter the container with vzctl exec # vzctl exec 1234 /bin/bash and when i want to get rid of one piece it wants to remove more of them... # apt-get remove initramfs-tools Reading package lists... Building dependency tree... Reading state information... The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libedit2 libbsd0 openssh-client Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
