Recommended action: Use docker:dind-rootless unmodified (UID 1000) with --privileged, or rebuild it with the new UID in /etc/passwd, /etc/group, subuid/subgid and chown the home; enable user namespaces on the host (sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1, user.max_user_namespaces large).
Option: Use docker:dind-rootless unmodified (UID 1000) with --privileged, or rebuild it with the new UID in /etc/passwd, /etc/group, subuid/subgid and chown the home; enable user namespaces on the host (sysctl kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone=1, user.max_user_namespaces large). [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Running docker:dind-rootless (or dockerd as non-root in the dind image) in CI, Kubernetes or agent sandboxes
Steps:
1. docker run -d --privileged docker:dind-rootless
2. For a custom UID: sed /etc/passwd and /etc/group, add subuid/subgid, chown -R rootless ~rootless.
3. On the host: sysctl -w user.max_user_namespaces=28633
Expected: The error no longer appears.
