Bug Description
Under the current noble daily server image for Raspberry Pi (arm64 architecture) I cannot launch an armhf container image using lxd from the channel 5.21/stable/
$ lxc launch ubuntu-
Creating nobletest
Starting nobletest
$ lxc list
+------
| NAME | STATE | IPV4 | IPV6 | TYPE | SNAPSHOTS |
+------
| nobletest | STOPPED | | | CONTAINER | 0 |
+------
In case this was an issue with the current noble daily, I also attempted launching the mantic and jammy armhf images, but with the same symptoms:
$ lxc launch ubuntu:m/armhf mantictest
Creating mantictest
Starting mantictest
$ lxc list
+------
| NAME | STATE | IPV4 | IPV6 | TYPE | SNAPSHOTS |
+------
| nobletest | STOPPED | | | CONTAINER | 0 |
+------
| mantictest | STOPPED | | | CONTAINER | 0 |
+------
I attempted the same tests under the 23.10 server for Pi images (also arm64 host) and both containers launched successfully, so this appears to be an issue with lxd under noble specifically.
