Comment on Boot Docker in 10 seconds on any VM or physical machine with this 30 MB ISO

Comments

Just do:

    wget https://github.com/steeve/boot2docker/releases/download/v0.1/boot2docker.iso
    qemu-system-x86_64 -cdrom boot2docker.iso -m 1024
Mind. Blown.

However, remember that qemu-system does _not_ virtualize, so it will likely be slower than a virtualized environment (vbox...).

qemu-kvm does virtualize, but only on Linux.

Indeed; for the lucky ones around here with a bare metal Linux box, just substitute kvm instead and ROCK ON!

On ubuntu it says 'W: kvm binary is deprecated, please use qemu-system-x86_64 instead'
