Help getting docker to run on mv1000

rp201rp · 2019-12-11T19:45:35.509Z

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:

OpenWrt Wiki – 13 Feb 14

OpenWrt as a Docker Image

OpenWrt as a Docker Image See also Docker OpenWrt Image Generation. The goal of this document is to run OpenWrt images on docker, a container system based on LXC. OpenWrt as a Native Docker Image Outdated Information! This article contains...

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

OpenWrt Wiki – 7 May 19

OpenWrt in LXC containers

OpenWrt in LXC containers OpenWrt can run inside a LXC container, using the same kernel as running on the host system. This can be useful for development as well as for VM hosting. Privileged vs Unprivileged Consult your distro for up to date...

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.

rp201rp · 2020-01-04T18:01:53.592Z

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

thank you for adding the link.

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

@rp201rp
Hi, It fixed. Pls download the new firmware and follow the docs to make a test. Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks.
