Install docker on FreeBSD ? Linux Hint [10] This is going to be a quick tutorial that?ll show you how to set up docker on a FreeBSD system. Docker, as you?re probably familiar with, is a utility that alleviates making, deploy, and launching software programs by compiling it into lightweight, executable packages called containers. By condensing an application into a package, the developers create a standalone container that comes with all the libraries and dependencies included. This makes the distribution much easier for the devs, as the containers allow the applications to work on various Linux platforms. As of yet, docker isn?t supported for the FreeBSD operating system, so there?s no way you can use docker on FreeBSD, natively at least. Several attempts have been made to build the docker source up for FreeBSD, but none that I could find yielded any substantial results. This is likely because FreeBSD lacks some of Linux?s features, such as namespace and cgroups that aren?t yet a part of FreeBSD kernel. So that leaves us with one option only: using a virtual machine. So we?ll use virtualbox in this tutorial to fire up a Linux VM in FreeBSD and use docker within it. Install Unbreakable Linux Kernel on Oracle Linux 8 ?
