I ran into the same problem, but I found that it should work if bootstrapping from 22.04.
The problem appears to be due to the version of QEMU available for 20.04. The user mode emulation doesn't support OFD (open file description) locks according to: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-08/msg06566.html It looks like that was fixed in QEMU 5.1. Since 22.04 carries QEMU 6.2, I was able to work around this issue by manually upgrading the qemu- user-static package to the 22.04 version. This actually works on 20.04 because the binaries are statically linked. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2054901 Title: Systemd fails to install on Noble arm64 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap/+bug/2054901/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
