Hi, just a guess - does the container have an `/etc/fstab` inside? and does the `/etc/fstab` contain an entry for `/dev/pts`?
If yes - I guess the container would start on PVE 5.3 when you remove the line (or the complete `/etc/fstab`). This might result in it not starting on PVE 4.x. Could you test this?
