Docker Linux

This is a custom Docker image based on Ubuntu. It a good starting point for testing Linux in a containerized environment.

Installation

• Clone the repository
• Build the Docker image: docker build -t ubuntu-custom .
• Create a volume for persistent storage: docker volume create ubuntu-root-volume
• Run the Docker container with the volume: docker run -it -v ubuntu-root-volume:/root ubuntu-custom
• Test your Linux application: (e.g. by creating a file in the /root directory)

Tip: All files in the /root directory will be saved in the volume for persistent storage

Note: Make sure you have Docker installed on your machine

TIP: When saving files in the container, they will be lost when the container is stopped. To save files, use a volume or copy them to the Dockerfile directory so they are copied to the container during the next build

Usage

• Run the Docker container: docker run -it --rm -v ubuntu-root-volume:/root ubuntu-custom
• Test your Linux application: (e.g. by creating a file in the /root directory)

Tip: You could create an alias for the above docker command in your .bashrc or .zshrc file (e.g. alias ubuntu='docker run -it --rm -v ubuntu-root-volume:/root ubuntu-custom') Tip: the --rm flag will automatically remove the container when it is stopped To delete a volume, use the command: docker volume rm ubuntu-root-volume
