If you're mainly just looking for something with Docker preinstalled VMWare's PhotonOS[0] may be an option. It's a stripped down CentOS/RHEL based distro that's targeted at being a container host. I believe they've said they'll also package other container runtimes in the future as the market shifts.

- GordonS 7y agoThanks, this isn't one I've come across! A quick look shows the ISO as ~4GB, which is a bit concerning though - CoreOS is around 450MB, and RancherOS only 135MB (although it's a bit difficult to compare, since they both download stuff during boot).
- w7 7y agoThat's not the install size. From the documentation there are multiple install options ranging in size so they just decided to package it all in one. "Minimal" install is like 400-500 MB iirc.
