Kubeadm init error: addon/coredns unable to create serviceaccount!

Hello all,

I’m stuck with an issue that I’m not able to understand and to get the origin,
After being installing all required tools and trying many times the creation of a cluster using kubeadm, an error is raised -at the end of initialization- indicating that’s impossible to create “serviceaccount” for corednd addon, could you help please ?

k8s-master VM network caracteristics:

Bridge Adapter interface (enp0s3): DHCP4: true, addr: 192.168.1.24
NAT Network (enp0s8): : DHCP4: true, addr: 192.168.56.7

Cluster information:

Kubernetes version: 1.25.4
Installation method: from scratch (kubeadm)
Host OS: ubuntu server 22.04 LTS
CNI and version: not installed yet (I’ll use latest version of calico)
CRI and version: docker.io, 20.10.12
