Hello,

After trying to run ./docker-device-image-shell …/output/rpi3\_golden.ext4 rpi3\_v2 raspberrypi3  
I’m getting “chroot: failed to run command ‘/bin/bash’: Exec format error”.  
Probably means there’s a mix between architectures?  
My golden ext4 partition is basically a stock raspbian buster sdcard image downloaded from their official page converted with mender-convert.

Seems like there’s a need to have `qemu-user-static ` installed on a host machine.
