Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu:20.04
RUN apt-get update \
	&& DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y \
	libxerces-c3.2 python3 curl \
	&& apt-get clean \

Steps to reproduce:
Start container:

docker run -v $PWD:/app --rm  -it --entrypoint="" --runtime=sysbox-runc gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:v1.8.1-debug /bin/sh

Run Kaniko

/kaniko/executor --dockerfile /app/Dockerfile --no-push

Running with default runtime works.

Let me know if you need more information.

Start by reproducing the Dockerfile build with /kaniko/executor inside the sysbox-runc container, then compare it with the default runtime. Investigate the rootfs unpack failure when unlinking /lib/modules/5.15.0-1005-aws/modules.builtin.modinfo on the read-only filesystem. Done means the same Kaniko build completes successfully under sysbox-runc.
