On Fedora 31 after starting docker container some error as follows because of cgroups v2.
<!--more-->

```
docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:346: starting container process caused "process_linux.go:297: applying cgroup configuration for process caused \"open /sys/fs/cgroup/docker/cpuset.cpus.effective: no such file or directory\"": unknown.
```


This is beacaue Fedora 31 uses cgroups v2 by default and docker doesn’t yet support cgroupsv2. In this tutorial I am going to show you how to change cgroups to v1 as a quick fix to run docker.

```
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=0"

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
reboot
```
