+
+Install **lxd**:
+
+    sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:ubuntu-lxc/stable
+    sudo apt-get update
+    sudo apt-get install lxd
+
+Give root one subuid and subgid:
+
+    sudo usermod --add-subuids 1000000-165536 root
+    sudo usermod --add-subgids 1000000-165536 root
+
+OR give root 99 subuid's/subgid's:
+
+    for i in {100..199}; do sudo usermod --add-subuids ${i}00000-${i}65536 root; sudo usermod --add-subgids ${i}00000-${i}65536 root; done # This takes a while
+
+Restart **lxd**:
+
+    sudo service lxd restart
+
+Set the remote authentication password:
+
+    lxc config set core.trust_password <your-password-here>
+
+Change the default profile network interface:
+
+    lxc profile edit default # Change lxcbr0 to your value.
+
+Create an image:
+
+    lxd-images import lxc ubuntu trusty amd64 --alias trusty64 --alias ubuntu/trusty/amd64
+
+Create the container "trusty64" from the image "ubuntu/trusty/amd64" you just made:
