    If anyone else is having this issue, this is what I did to resolve it on Debian 13.

    My media is found on an internal hard drive mounted to /mnt/storage. Replace that with the path to your storage in the below example.

    All mounted drives get mounted with a systemd mount unit. List all mount units with this command and note the relevant mount unit name for your configuration:
    Code:
    systemctl list-units --type=mount

    In my situation, my media is located at /mnt/storage. So I want to wait for the mnt-storage.mount unit to finish before launching my container. To do so I needed to add the following lines in the appropriate sections to the quadlet file:
    Code:
    [Unit]
    # Need to have media storage mounted before starting container
    Requires=mnt-storage.mount
    After=mnt-storage.mount
    RequiresMountsFor=/mnt/storage

    [Install]
    # Do not want to start by default. Start only after media storage is mounted
    WantedBy=mnt-storage.mount
