[Vserver] Newbie question: trouble installing vserver on fc4-x86_64

Hi all

I installed the kernel patches and utils successfully on my dual
xeon-ia32 fc4-x86_64 box now running
2.6.13-1.1532_FC4.vs2.0.1.0.pre2.1smp (after recompiling the SRPMS for
this arch). I use util-vserver 0.30.209-5.

Then, I adapted /etc/vservers/.distributions/fc4/apt/sources.list to
point to my local yam - based repository (with apt and yum
repositories).

Now when I try

vserver v-min-fc4 build -m apt-rpm --hostname v-min-fc4.milnet.lan
--interface dom-500=eth0:192.168.193.33/24 --initstyle sysv --context
500 -- -d fc4

my server basically installs the rpms

  basesystem filesystem glibc glibc-common libgcc setup tzdata

then it completes this list to include 53 packages, containing about 45
MB:

  MAKEDEV SysVinit audit-libs bash chkconfig coreutils cpio cracklib
cracklib-dicts db4 device-mapper e2fsprogs ethtool fedora-release
findutils gawk
  grep gzip hotplug hwdata info initscripts iproute iputils kernel less
libacl libattr libselinux libsepol libstdc++ libtermcap lvm2 mingetty
mkinitrd
  mktemp module-init-tools ncurses net-tools pam pcre popt procps
psmisc readline sed shadow-utils sysklogd tar termcap udev util-linux
zlib

It then downloads and installs all these packages to a temporary
location, however during installation I get several complaints about not
being able to install libtermcap.so.2 and an error while installing
kernel-2.6.13-1.

At the end, I get the message (in german):

E: Unterprozesss /usr/lib64/util-vserver/vrpm-preload gab Fehlercode
zurück (53)

(which means something like "subprocess
/usr/lib64/util-vserver/vrpm-preload returned error code (53)")

.... and then the process terminates without creating my /vservers/xxxxx
directory.

I also tried to install the server using -m yum; this seemed to create
my vserver directory, but then the server could not be started.

Did anybody succeed to install vservers on fc4-x86_64? How can this be
done? Any help would much be appreciated. Also, I don't find a
documentation about these error codes.

Regards
