Hi,

just upgraded my Proxmox 6 instance to version 7 and now a docker instance running in a Debian 10 based unprivileged container does not start anymore:

Code:
dockerd[474]: Error starting daemon: Devices cgroup isn't mounted

Code:
$ systemctl status docker.service
* docker.service - Docker Application Container Engine
   Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/docker.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)

The hints according to CentOS 7/8 problems mentioned in other threads did not solved this issue.

Any ideas what´s going wrong here?
