Is systemd itself setting up the /run tmpfs or have you got libvirt doing that ? If the former, you can can switch to making libvirt do it and then add in the dbus mount too eg something like this: <filesystem type="ram"> <source usage="1024"/> <target dir="/run"/> </filesystem> <filesystem type="mount"> <source dir="/run/dbus"/> <target dir="/run/dbus"/> </filesystem> Alternatively just use a single mount <filesystem type="mount"> <source dir="/run/dbus"/> <target dir="/some/where/else"/> </filesystem> and then inside the container startup do 'mount --bind /some/where/else /run/dbus"
