Help getting docker to run on mv1000

staring fresh:
from openwrt:
inserted a microsd card in mv1000 and copied ubuntu-18.04.3-20191109.tar.gz to microsd card
then
ubuntu_upgrade -n ubuntu-18.04.3-20191109.tar.gz
then
switch_system ubuntu
then
reboot
then
apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade
then
reboot
then
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh
bash get-docker.sh

systemctl start docker.service
“docker service fails to start”
what steps are missing?

I dont know so much about docker, a check the follow. It can be its releated to your question:

It can be LCX container can be a not so hevy alternate for small hardware devices:

If you find a way to run docker or LCX container on glinet, pls tell.
I would like run MediWiki on on of my glinet routers.

the brume has a dual-boot capability where it boots. openwrt or an embedded 18.04 linux ubuntu. it also has an 8gigemmc. therefore although your links point to running lxc I can assure you the other hardware sold by gl-inet might not be the best choice from a computing perspective. this was for ubuntu and not for openwrt

You’re right. I guess the MV1000 runs on Ubuntu. I didn’t understand what Ubuntu was for in this case anyway.

If I’m not quite wrong, the MV1000 has no WLAN, so that you can’t connect a display via HDMI by WiFi software. Also I guess that the connection of a monitor via USB-HDML is probably not possible.

As you can see, I don’t even understand what Ubuntu is for in this case.

I used the term dual boot or. which could be interpreted as boot this or that one config but only one config is stored at a time. Actually It stores an openwrt config and and ubuntu config at the same time and you can alternate between booting either or.

I think you referred to this post https://github.com/gl-inet/mv1000-ubuntu-image/blob/master/Docker_Installation_Guide.md

But it is not clear. We will update that doc.

yes I did refer to it but never anctually gave the link. whats sad is that it seemed strait forward and easy enough and yet still managed to incomplete the task :upside_down_face:

thank you for adding the link.

While, the guide will be rewritten next week. It does not explain clearly.
