Installation

Podman can be installed via `podman` package in the community repository.

 # apk add podman

To run podman you'll need to enable the cgroups service, consider enabling cgroups v2.

 # rc-update add cgroups
 # rc-service cgroups start

You might need to restart your machine for this to work properly.

If you are running on top of btrfs, consider setting storage driver to btrfs:

 +   $ cat /etc/containers/storage.conf | grep 'driver ='
 driver = "btrfs"

For rootless support (replace <USER> with your username):

 # modprobe tun
 # echo tun >>/etc/modules
 # echo <USER>:100000:65536 >/etc/subuid
 # echo <USER>:100000:65536 >/etc/subgid

Run an example container to verify everything works:

 $ podman run --rm hello-world
