Hi !
Having working Ubuntu 18.04 privileged container [1] on 18.04 Ubuntu host, I
am trying convert it to unprivileged [2], but starting it fails [3] with:
Permission denied - Failed to mount "/var/lib/lxc/C/rootfs" on "/usr/lib/
x86_64-linux-gnu/lxc"
Any hint what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance, regards!

Having 1G - 2G subuid/gids allocated for root:

Converting 65536 uids/gids to start from 1020000000 :
fuidshift /var/lib/lxc/template_ubuntu_18_04_amd64_unpriv/rootfs b:

Adding same mapping to config:

lxc.idmap = g 0 1020000000 65536
