I’m currently facing a challenge with my Home Assistant OS 8.1 installation on VMware Workstation. The system is stuck in an infinite boot loop, and I’ve noticed some Docker-related errors in the logs. Specifically, there are issues with container loading and a panic due to a page being freed multiple times. This has prevented the Docker service from starting correctly, which in turn affects the overall functionality of Home Assistant OS.
I’ve come across some discussions online suggesting that Docker might be experiencing corruption or misconfiguration. To address this, I’m looking into ways to stop the automatic reboot process so I can access the CLI and troubleshoot the issue manually. This would allow me to check Docker’s status, inspect logs for more detailed errors, and potentially reset or reconfigure Docker if necessary.
If anyone has experience with similar issues or knows how to disable the automatic reboot mechanism in Home Assistant OS, I’d greatly appreciate your insights. I’m also curious if there are any best practices for maintaining Docker containers within a virtualized environment, especially when running Home Assistant. Any advice or resources you can share would be incredibly helpful as I work to resolve this issue and get my setup back up and running smoothly.
Thank you in advance for your support and suggestions!
