Following my experience with #2976, I stumbled upon another issue: if Docker is installed, but currently stopped, docker-machine create fails.

The following logs have machine names, hostnames, and IPs changed to protect the guilty. ;-)

I ran the following command on a machine with Docker installed, but stopped (via systemd):

$ docker-machine -D create --driver generic --generic-ip-address mymachine.example.com --engine-storage-driver overlay mymachine

If you would like to use Docker as a non-root user, you should now consider
adding your user to the "docker" group with something like:

  sudo usermod -aG docker ubuntu

Remember that you will have to log out and back in for this to take effect!

...keeps looping the same output from 'sudo docker version' output: now...

What's wrong here - why is Docker not being started on the remote machine?

I was able to fix my problem.
It seems that my host had some old docker related data on it, for whatever reasons, which prevented it from starting/installing correctly.

I had to delete the existing /var/lib/docker and /etc/systemd/system/docker* files and folders.
After that I had to issue a sudo systemctl daemon-reload.
(Found also this: moby/moby#15651 (comment))

The /var/lib/docker folder was primarily a problem because I ran into msg="Error starting daemon: error initializing graphdriver: \"/var/lib/docker\", reported by the docker service, checked via journalctl -xe.

After cleaning the host docker-machine was able to use it again.
