Home Assistant do not start after upgrade from 8.4 to 8.5
Describe the issue you are experiencing
I have a Home Assitant running in a Virtual Machine ( VirtualBox ) which is running over Windows 11, I tried upgrade home assistant from 8.4 to 8.5 when I got notification from new release, however when system is booting to start with new release is stuck waiting for Docker application Container Engine.
[ *** ] A start job is running for Docker Application Container Engine ( Xmin Xs / no limit )
I have wait until 10 hours and this process never ends
Initially I was suspecting an incorrect configuration or conflict with a bad syntax related to any file that I could modify in my already configured Home Assitant, but I tested by removing my existant VM and created a new VM then without touching any configuration or install any add on, just from fresh HA sitanllation I tried to upgrade directly and I got same result.
does any one is having similar Issues for HA running in virtual machines?

This sounds somewhat similar to #2048 and #1705. What VirtualBox version are you using?
Yet again an update that adds absolutely nothing and breaks everything. When are you guys planning to stop releasing meaningless updates that only seem to break shit.
@sygys why are you saying that? Did your update break too?
and breaks everything
That seems wrong. According to https://analytics.home-assistant.io/ 21'278 installations are on 8.5. Yet we have just a couple of issues here.

This sounds somewhat similar to #2048 and #1705. What VirtualBox version are you using?
based on the comments for #1705 i remember that I increased the number of CPUs before the issue and upgrade, also when I created the new VM I selected 3 CPUs instead of 1 ( default ), I'll do some tests using single CPU
I am on 8.5 and did a reboot and that was that. Stuck with broken HA. Waited ages. Tried 'banner', 'supervisor repair'. 'restart' etc.. nothing. Shutdown. Changed CPU cores from 2 to 3 and then things got worse. Switched back and then somehow it worked. Now my deCONZ is broken.
Tried to update and it went into a perpetual restart loop. I am running HA on a NUC. Had to restore from backup
9.2 release a few days ago, use VM Work Station work fine. how about backup low version data and restore in last version? is that work?
I had the same problem on version 9.3 in virtualbox I changed 4vCPU to 2vCPU and it booted up
I had the same problem on version 9.3 in virtualbox I changed 4vCPU to 2vCPU and it booted up
correct the issue is due to I have increased the CPUs, I leave it in 2 CPUs only ( as default ) , the issue fixed. but I had to recreate again the VM in virtualbox.
