I've tried upgrading a Fedora LXC from v40 to v41, but it fails to start, or rather it starts but does nothing. The Proxmox host is updated in full, so should be the latest-and-greatest as of writing.

Anyone else seeing this, or can point at what's going wrong?

Code:
root@pve:~# pveversion
pve-manager/8.3.3/f157a38b211595d6 (running kernel: 6.8.12-7-pve)


Manually starting the container:
Code:
root@pve:~# /usr/bin/lxc-start -F -n 207
