+## Setting `subuid` and `subgid` values for `root`
+
+You need to set both the value of the root user's `subuid` and `subgid` (the range of subordinate user and group id's). This value should be:
+
+```bash
+root:1000000:1000000000
+```
+
+To do this, edit the `/etc/subuid` and add that line. When completed, your file will be:
+
+```bash
+root:1000000:1000000000
+```
+
+Edit the `/etc/subgid` file and add that line again. Your file will look something like this:
+
+```bash
+incusadmin:100000:65536
+root:1000000:1000000000
+```
+
 At this point, you have made a bunch of changes. Before you go any further, reboot your machine.
