-###### System requirements
+====== System requirements ======
-See:
+  * 1 GHz or faster 32 bits (x86) or 64 bits (x64) processor
+  * 1 Gio memory (minimum) - For heavily loaded servers or high flow is recommended at least 8 Gio
+  * 1 Gio of available hard disk space for i-MSCP and managed services, excluding user data
+  * Internet access (at least 100 Mbits/s recommended)
+  * A Linux kernel >= 2.6.26
+  * A file system supporting extended attributes such as ext2, ext3, ext4 or reiserfs*****
+  * Appropriate privileges to create devices (CAP_MKNOD capability)
+  * Appropriate privileges to mount, unmount and remount filesystems (CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability)
-Debian: https://github.com/i-MSCP/imscp/blob/1.3.x/docs/Debian/INSTALL.md#1-requirements
+===== Reiserfs users =====
-Ubuntu: https://github.com/i-MSCP/imscp/blob/1.3.x/docs/Ubuntu/INSTALL.md#1-requirements
+In order, to use the reiserfs file system with i-MSCP, you must follow these steps:
+Edit your **/etc/fstab** file to add the **attrs** option for your device (e.g. device containing the /var partition). For
+instance:
+    UUID=74699091-3ab8-43f2-bdd5-d1d898ab50fd /     reiserfs notail          0    1
+should be updated to:
+    UUID=74699091-3ab8-43f2-bdd5-d1d898ab50fd /     reiserfs notail,attrs    0    1
+Once you did that, you can remount your device. For instance:
+    mount -o remount /dev/disk/by-uuid/74699091-3ab8-43f2-bdd5-d1d898ab50fd
+If needed, you can find the uuid of your device, with the following command:
+    blkid <device>
+where **<device>** must be replaced by your device path such as **/dev/sda1**
+===== LXC containers =====
+If you want install i-MSCP inside a LXC container, the following conditions have to be met:
+  * You must have the **CAP_MKNOD** capability inside the container. Thus, you must ensure that **mknod** is not in the list of dropped capabilities
+  * You must have the **CAP_SYS_ADMIN** capability inside the container (required to mount filesystems). Thus, you must ensure that `sys_admin` is not in the list of dropped capabilities.
+  * You must allow the creation of devices inside the container by white-listing them. Easy solution is to add **lxc.cgroup.devices.allow = a *:* rwm** in LXC container configuration file.
+  * If you use **Apparmor**, you must allow **mount**,**umount** and **remount** operations inside your container by modifying the default apparmor profile **/etc/apparmor.d/lxc/lxc-default** or by creating a specific apparmor profile for the container.
+Note that these operations must be done on the host, not in the container.

+===== OpenVZ containers (Proxmox and Virtuozzo) =====
+You could have to increase the **fs.ve-mount-nr** limit, else, an error such as **mount: Cannot allocate memory** could be threw by CageFS. To avoid this problem you must:
+  - Increase the limit by adding an entry such as **fs.ve-mount-nr = 4096** to your **/etc/sysctl.conf** file
+  - Make the new limit effective by executing the **sysctl -p** command
+Note that these operations must be done on the host, not in the container.
