Install Docker under Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty)

Image
Docker supports Ubuntu versions: Ubuntu Vivid 15.04 (64-bit) Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 (LTS) (64-bit) Ubuntu Precise 12.04 (LTS) (64-bit) Ubuntu Raring 13.04 and Saucy 13.10 (64 bit)  For both Vivid and Trusty you need nothing. It will work out of the box. Others will require some modifications. (Updating of some things, like kernel or installing with wget on 13.04) 1. To install docker from a repository do so: sudo apt - get update sudo apt - get install docker . io sudo ln - sf / usr / bin / docker . io / usr / local / bin / docker sudo sed - i '$acomplete -F _docker docker' / etc / bash_completion . d / docker . io 2. Now run it with: sudo apt - get install lxc - docker 3. Make it run on system boot: sudo update - rc . d docker . io defaults 4. Ready to go! Run container with an Ubuntu: sudo docker run - i - t ubuntu / bin / bash To disconnect, or detach, from the shell without exiting use the escape sequence Ctrl-p + Ctrl-q .

Tmux quick start guide

Tmux is a handy terminal manager that allows you to switch between terminal sessions easily. Without losing history or windows upon ssh disconnects or similar. It is like screen , just better. (First of all because of using client-server based technology... ) Here is my minimal keyboard shortcuts guide that allows you to start using Tmux in a blink of an eye. Endless advanced commands and hotkey combinations you could always find by entering "man tmux" in a terminal. Tmux is installed quite easily in most of common linux based systems. Just type: Ubuntu: $ sudo apt - get install tmux CentOS: $ sudo yum install tmux This allows you to start using by starting it with $ tmux a | | tmux new This command first tries to attach to existing running tmux instance and creates new in case it is not found. Ctrl+b d - Will allow you to disconnect at any time. (This is also a way it is happening when you loose ssh session. How to connect - look earlier) Each sess
