<div>
<pre>When pointing --bind to a non-existent directory, systemd-nspawn will fail with
"Failed to register machine: Interrupted system call" but doesn't show any
clear message why it failed.
systemd-nspawn should check the validity of a path in --bind before attempting
to launch the instance.
If the path is invalid, it should show an error message like:
"Path /foo/bar is invalid"
The same goes for --bind-ro</pre>
