This was by far the best demonstration of docker and what you can do with things. I watched it at 2x speed, and was completely digestible. Thanks for taking time to make this video.

I actually did 80 % of the stuff shown here in centos7 and created a centos 7 base image. The rest just didn't apply to my case.

Thank you for the time you put in this video. It was extremely helpful!

If you go through the steps this video helps get your head around docker concepts.. thanks!

To proceed with docker-io installation on CentOS-6, you may need to remove the docker package first.
$ sudo yum -y remove docker
Next, let's install the docker-io package which will install Docker on our host.
$ sudo yum install docker-io

I also had issues with the bridge networking and finally figured out that it was creating an eth2 vs eth0 (this could have been user error messing with the settings and restarting a bunch of time) but figuring that out by running this command in the VM shell.. then changing the ifcfg accordingly.
# ip a

Excellent tutorial. Have you used openvz? It is so much more mature. Why is Docker so popular over openvz?
