Trying to migrate a build from QEMU to ARM64 to speed up builds. As part of the build we use the debian pbuilder tool which creates a chroot. When creating this chroot from a tarball, the tar command fails because of tar: ./dev/zero: Cannot mknod: No such file or directory. Doing some googling, it sounds like this is an issue with the LXC container config.

Any way to configure the LXC containers so that this works?
