O.S.Tezer f87a97f7df Improve code/comment/output markings & display consistency 
This PR aims to increase the consistency across the docs for
code blocks and code/comment/output markings.

Rule followed here is "what's visible on the screen should be reflected"

Issue:

 - Docs had various code blocks showing: comments, commands & outputs.
 - All three of these items were inconsistently marked.

Some examples as to how this PR aims to introduce improvements:

1. Removed `> ` from in front of the "outputs". Eg,
`    > REPOSITORY                 TAG       ID              CREATED` replaced with:
`    REPOSITORY                 TAG       ID              CREATED`.

2. Introduced `$` for commands. Eg,
`    sudo chkconfig docker on` replaced with:
`    $ sudo chkconfig docker on`

3. Comments:
`    > # ` replaced with:
`    # `.

> Please note:
> Due to a vast amount of items reviewed and changed for this PR, there
> might be some individually incorrect replacements OR patterns of incorrect
> replacements. This PR needs to be reviewed and if there is anything missing,
> it should be improved or amended.

Arch Linux

Note

Docker is still under heavy development! We don't recommend using it in production yet, but we're getting closer with each release. Please see our blog post, Getting to Docker 1.0

Note

This is a community contributed installation path. The only official installation is using the Ubuntu installation path. This version may be out of date because it depends on some binaries to be updated and published

Installing on Arch Linux can be handled via the package in community:

or the following AUR package:

The docker package will install the latest tagged version of docker. The docker-git package will build from the current master branch.

Dependencies

Docker depends on several packages which are specified as dependencies in the packages. The core dependencies are:

  • bridge-utils
  • device-mapper
  • iproute2
  • lxc
  • sqlite

Installation

For the normal package a simple

pacman -S docker

is all that is needed.

For the AUR package execute:

yaourt -S docker-git

The instructions here assume yaourt is installed. See Arch User Repository for information on building and installing packages from the AUR if you have not done so before.

Starting Docker

There is a systemd service unit created for docker. To start the docker service:

$ sudo systemctl start docker

To start on system boot:

$ sudo systemctl enable docker
