BoxBuddy Stuck on starting container

Is this a known issue? Not sure where to look for logs if any.
Solution
Boxbuddy doesn't have an option for adding additional packages when doing an installation which is usually needed for the "init" stuff so try something like this in the terminal when creating the distrobox
distrobox create --name debian-test --image debian:latest --init --additional-packages "systemd"
distrobox create --name debian-test --image debian:latest --init --additional-packages "systemd"
The key parts are
--init
--init
and
--additional-packages "systemd"
--additional-packages "systemd"
