Docker on Debian

Packages installed: debootstrap and friends.

I use Debian testing/jessie (now stable), and put sid into sources.list so I can apt-get install docker.io, because docker.io removed from testing in late March 2015 and available only in sid.

# vim /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://yourrepo/debian/ sid main

Update your packages list.

# apt-get update

Install docker.io with:

# apt-get install docker.io

Use mkimage.sh to create Docker image.

$ sudo /usr/share/docker.io/contrib/mkimage.sh -t ${USER}/minbase debootstrap --variant=minbase --components=main --include=inetutils-ping,inetutils-traceroute,iproute jessie http://yourrepo/debian/

Try to run 'echo'.

$ sudo docker run -i ${USER}/minbase echo "hello citra"

Firstly, create a dockerfile for your container.

FROM stwn/minbase
MAINTAINER stwn@NOSPAMduniasemu.org

RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    apt-utils less sudo screen \
    openssh-server openssh-client \
    asterisk

# docker images
