Error : could not start buildkit

\>$ earthly --version
earthly version v0.6.30 743687991d227f2f7e2e6ba11a90f443b4f99c67 linux/amd64; Pop!_OS 18.10

Freshly installed using instructions.

I get the following error when I try boostrap or when I run hello world:

Error: build new buildkitd client: maybe start buildkitd: start: could not start buildkit: 1 error occurred:
        * command failed: docker run --privileged --env BUILDKIT_TLS_ENABLED=false --env BUILDKIT_MAX_PARALLELISM=20 --env BUILDKIT_DEBUG=false --env BUILDKIT_TCP_TRANSPORT_ENABLED=false --label dev.earthly.settingshash=c47eed41a88b6f3b --mount type=volume,source=earthly-cache,dst=/tmp/earthly --publish 127.0.0.1:8371:8371/tcp --platform linux/amd64 -d --name earthly-buildkitd earthly/buildkitd:v0.6.30: exit status 1: "--platform" is only supported on a Docker daemon with experimental features enabled: exit status 1

Running manually without the "platform" flag is working like a charm.

Is there a way to configure it so it can bootstrap without the platform flag?

I believe that #2511 solves this, but we don't have a release up with that change in yet. Can you try building earthly from the latest main? See our CONTRIBUTING.md for build instructions.
