Just curious, I tried this as my user account on Fedora 34 and do not see any mount points. I assume this is does't work because the root overlay is not enabled by default?

Hi Scott, Mine worked by doing the suggested "podman unshare" after starting container: podman unshare mount -t overlay I'm now able to see the overlay filesystem. There's some reset you might need to do like mentioned here: https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/podman-rootless-overlay The thing is that I wasn't aware that rootful containers are *not* in a separate mount-namespace and that's why you see the overlay mounts in the host.
