Describe issue

Tried on WSL2 & Ubuntu without WSL, get same problem...

Running the "Get docker" or "Set timezone" steps, I always get this error :
System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate.
| Failed to connect to bus: Host is down

Other steps are running fine.

Any idea ?
It seems I can workaround this workflow without these steps, but want to understand the problem, I think I will get it on other workflows...
