====== Ubuntu ====== * Given the fact that debian is pretty conservative distribution it is better to use ubuntu as a host system - even on LTS Ubuntu Server 14.04 it is recommended to upgrade docker via its repository. This can be done following this tutorial: http://www.bogotobogo.com/DevOps/Docker/Docker_Install_On_Ubuntu_14.php ====== Bare metal installation ====== apt-get install docker.io ====== Xen server installation ====== * linux kernel > 3.2 needed -> kind of problem, our xen servers has 3.0 kernels * best way is to extract kernel (vmlinuz and initramfs) from VPS and point to them in the cfg * then apt-get install docker.io
