$ lxc storage create docker btrfs - once - create lxc container for your runner, where X is just the next number or whatever you want to use
$ lxc launch images:ubuntu/22.04 gh-runner-X - create storage volume for the runner
$ lxc storage volume create docker gh-runner-X - attach volume to the container
$ lxc config device add gh-runner-X docker disk pool=docker source=gh-runner-X path=/var/lib/docker - extra config to run docker inside container
$ lxc config set gh-runner-X security.nesting=true security.syscalls.intercept.mknod=true security.syscalls.intercept.setxattr=true - restart container
$ lxc restart gh-runner-X - enter container
$ lxc exec gh-runner-X bash - update
