podman-create and -run only. The SELinux text was added to podman-run (but not -create) in #3631, and reformatted in #5192. I assume here that it also applies to podman-create. Per feedback from Dan, added :s0 to SELinux context Signed-off-by: Ed Santiago <santiago@redhat.com>

#### **--rootfs**
|
|
|
|
If specified, the first argument refers to an exploded container on the file system.
|
|
|
|
This is useful to run a container without requiring any image management, the rootfs
|
|
of the container is assumed to be managed externally.
|
|
|
|
`Overlay Rootfs Mounts`
|
|
|
|
The `:O` flag tells Podman to mount the directory from the rootfs path as
|
|
storage using the `overlay file system`. The container processes
|
|
can modify content within the mount point which is stored in the
|
|
container storage in a separate directory. In overlay terms, the source
|
|
directory will be the lower, and the container storage directory will be the
|
|
upper. Modifications to the mount point are destroyed when the container
|
|
finishes executing, similar to a tmpfs mount point being unmounted.
|
|
|
|
Note: On **SELinux** systems, the rootfs needs the correct label, which is by default
|
|
**unconfined_u:object_r:container_file_t:s0**.
