In response to the comments I have included additional information.

... (repeats over and over again)

I have sucessfully installed Kubernetes 1.18 with CRI-0 1.18 and set up a cluster using kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16. However, the "coredns"-nodes are stuck at "ContainerCreating". I followed the official Kubernetes install instructions.

What I have tried

I tried installing Calico but that didn't fix it. I also tried manually changing the cni0 interface to UP but that also didn't work. The problem apparently lies somewhere with the bridged traffic but I followed the Kubernetes tutorial and enabled it.

In my research of the problem I stumbled upon promising solutions and tutorials but none of them solved the problem. (Rancher GitHub Issue, CRI-O GitHub Page, Projectcalico, Kubernetes tutorial)

You are switching between different cni plugins? You used kubeadm to install k8s?share kubelet logs – Arius
Can You check if all k8s system pods are running? You can verify that with kubectl get pods --namespace kube-system. – Jesus
@ArghyaSadhu Do you mean systemd logs? E.g. journalctl -xe --unit kubelet. – Hallux
yes systemd logs using journalctl – Arius
@PiotrMalec I included the output of your command. All pods except coredns are running. – Hallux
@ArghyaSadhu I included the logs but it's the same message over and over again. You can find more logs below the "journald logs" heading – Hallux
Yes this looks like an issue caused by missing/miss-configured CNI plugin. Like @ArghyaSadhu suggested. – Jesus
What does that mean exactly? I am pretty new to Kubernetes. Do you mean CNI plugins like Calico or Flannel? Prior to posting my answer I installed Calico sucessfully but then I also got the same "permission denied" and "ContainerCreating" errors for the nodes. However, I reverted the changes and started from scratch. – Hallux

Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch! I finally fixed it! It only took me, what, about a bazillion years and a restless-night. Sweet Victory! Well... ehm. On to the solution.

I finally understand the comments by @Arghya Sadhu and @Piotr Malec and they were right. I didn't configure my CNI-plugin correctly. I am using Flannel as a network provider and they require a 10.244.0.0/16 subnet. In my crio-bridge.conf found in /etc/cni/net.d/ the default subnet was different (10.85.0.0/16 or something). I thought it would be enough to specify the CIDR on the kubeadm init command but I was wrong. You need to set the correct CIDR in the crio-bridge.conf and podman.conflist (or similar files in the directory). I also thought those files that were installed with CRI-O were configured with reasonable defaults and, to be honest, I didn't fully understand what they were for.

Also something strange happened: According to Flannel the subnet for CRI-O should be /16 but when I checked the logs with journalctl -u kubelet it mentioned a /24 subnet. 

failed to set bridge addr: \"cni0\" already has an IP address different from 10.244.0.1/24"

So I had to change the subnet in crio.conf to /24 and it worked. I probably have to change the subnet in the podman.conflist too, but I am not sure.

Anyway, thanks to Arghya and Piotr for their help!

To setup a cluster with Calico network plugin and cri-o container runtime, I had to:

Add to /etc/crio/crio.conf

[crio.network]
network_dir = "/etc/cni/net.d/"
plugin_dirs = [
    "/opt/cni/bin/",
    "/usr/libexec/cni/",
]

Add --cgroup-driver=systemd in /var/lib/kubelet/kubeadm-flags.env

KUBELET_KUBEADM_ARGS="--cgroup-driver=systemd --container-runtime=remote --container-runtime-endpoint=/var/run/crio/crio.sock --pod-infra-container-image=k8s.gcr.io/pause:3.5"

Restart kubelet and crio

systemctl daemon-reload && systemctl restart kubelet crio

Initialize cluster

kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr='10.85.0.0/16'

Install calico network plugin

kubectl create -f https://docs.projectcalico.org/manifests/calico.yaml
