Podman 5.1.0 introduced the following feature:

Podman now detects unhandled system reboots and advises the user on proper mitigations.

https://github.com/containers/podman/releases?q=v5.1.0&expanded=true

This seems to cause the following error (aftre a reboot) if linger is not enabled before installation:

Error: current system boot ID differs from cached boot ID; an unhandled reboot has occurred. Please delete directories "/tmp/storage-run-1001/containers" and "/tmp/storage-run-1001/libpod/tmp" and re-run Podman

The enable linger setting should be set BEFORE the containers are started otherwise the quay is not started after a reboot.

tested with:
RHEL Version: RHEL 9.6
Podman Version: 5.4.0
