Setting up Ubuntu/Kubuntu, MacOS, Debian for kickstart

This document covers docker setup and install instructions for:

• Ubuntu >16.04
• MacOS
• Debian

For Windows10 see the KickGuest Virtualbox Project

Ubuntu Install (16.04 - 18.10)

As user run:

sudo apt-get install docker.io curl
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker

This will install docker and curl and add your local user to the docker group.

Logout and login again. You should be able to run docker ps without warnings as unprivileged user.

Thats it

MacOS Install

• Download stable Docker.dmg
• Install by dragging the file into the application bar

Run terminal

docker info
docker ps

Should work right out of the box.

Debain Install (stetch / debian 9)

The package docker.io is only included in debians testing branch.

To only install packages from testing if required, edit your apt-preferences:

Edit /etc/apt/preferences.d/000 to

Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: * 
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 650

And add the testing-sorurces to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://mirror.eu.oneandone.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free

sudo apt update
sudo apt install docker.io curl
sudo gpasswd -a $USER docker
