Thanks for the redirection. I started with the template script because that's the one who's description resembled "downloads, installs and configures {thing}", which sounds a lot like  a 'turnkey' process, which is the promised land dream that brought me here ;-) (A refugee after a month of failing to get a Samba 4 domain controller installed and configured on Ubuntu; couldn't resolve dns issues).

In contrast lxc-create and lxc-start are not mentioned at all on the LXC app home page, while something in the template script usage help messages make it sounds like lxc-create is called by template. Looking inside the lxc-create script I don't see anything about where the image it's to use comes from (downloading). i.e. After creation how is it populated? In contrast there's many lines in template about that.
