+**Problem.** `zk init` failes with the following error:
+```sh
+Cannot create container for service geth: invalid mount config for type "bind": bind source path does not exist: /home/stanislav/matter-labs/zksync-dev/volumes/geth

+You might also see these errors not only for geth, but also for `postgres` and `tesseracts`.

+**Solution**. In the repository folder there should be a folder `volumes`, with three folders inside of it: `geth`, `tesseracts`, `postgres`. If some of these are missing, you must create them on your own.
