>Is there a timetable and could you perhaps elaborate a bit as to why it currently requires root? (I don't know anything about virtual machine internals so this isn't a passive-aggressive question from my side. It's genuine curiosity.) Not from Weave, but I might have an idea as I've played with Firecracker a bit.
When you start up a Firecracker VM, you need to provide it with a rootfs drive, which is a file containing the root file system to be used for the VM. Ignite uses OCI images, so I guess they are doing something similar to [1] in code, the `mount` part requires sudo, so that would be my guess to why you need root.
