earthly: buildkitd Crashes with `CGroups V2 - sh: write error: Not supported`

Hello!

Im trying to package earthly for Gentoo Linux and as a test project I’m using https://github.com/earthly/hello-world.

When running earthly +hello I get the following error:

 Init 🚀————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

           buildkitd | Starting buildkit daemon as a docker container (earthly-buildkitd)...

Error: build new buildkitd client: maybe start buildkitd: wait until started: buildkitd crashed
It seems that buildkitd is shutting down or it has crashed. You can report crashes at https://github.com/earthly/earthly/issues/new.

The earthly-buildkitd logs:

sh: write error: Not supported

sh: write error: Not supported looks very suspicious, you you think there is something wrong with the docker installation or with buildkitd container?

This issue is solved for me with Earthly version 0.17.4. Tested it with the hello example and with a personal project. Thanks!

Excellent, thank you! I will stress test i over the coming weeks but I can run the hello world example from the docs.

Would it also make sense to rename this issue to e.g. “buildkitd Crashes with CGroups V2 - sh: write error: Not supported” ?
