You don't need virtualbox or vagrant, but you do need a Linux machine. So if you are running a Mac or Windows machine, Virtualbox/vagrant is a convenient way to get a linux machine up and running.
Docker itself is just one binary. Here are instructions to get started: http://docker.io/gettingstarted http://docker.io/gettingstarted
- StavrosK 14y agoThanks, I realized that later (I just cded into the dir and built it). I got some errors after downloading the image, however. I assume it's because I'm on the 3.5 kernel rather than 3.8.
- shykes 14y agoWhat kind of errors? On kernel < 3.8 docker will print a warning because of a known kernel bug. You may or may not hit the bug on 3.5 depending on your hardware configuration. If you do, you'll know: the kernel will panic ;)
- StavrosK 14y agoOh, it wasn't a kernel panic, thankfully :) I closed the window now, but, after downloading the image, I got some errors like "improper file permissions" and "bsdtar exiting". Sorry I can't provide the exact errors, but if I run it it has to download the entire thing again.
