FYI I tested it while in wait mode for something else, and it fell over
at the first hurdle:

running bootstrap script ... 2022-02-18 22:25:45.119 UTC [34860] FATAL: 
could not create shared memory segment: Function not implemented
2022-02-18 22:25:45.119 UTC [34860] DETAIL:  Failed system call was
shmget(key=1407374884304065, size=56, 03600).
child process exited with exit code 1

I'm not intending to put any more effort into supporting it.

cheers
