   Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try docker, or maybe go for podman - a   
   bit less amount of abstractions. The lxc/lxd/incus kindof solution   
   would have been perfect for this, and I was even thinking about proxmox   
   , but I think its a bit too heavy for a raspberry pi - but yes I know   
   k8s is also possible, I just dont want the admin overhead when its not   
   necessary. The other end of of the spectrum would be hand crafted   
   chroot, there is a very good article about that   
   https://tmpout.sh/4/9.html - and while it'd most likely work,   
   maintaining would require more effort than docker/podman.
