1. Verify Requirements
For standard installation Docker required 64 bit operating system having Kernel >= 3.10 version. Older versions of Kernel have some missing requirements to run all features of Docker.
$ uname -r
3.19.0-49-generic
For Ubuntu 15.10 & 14.04 Docker recommended to install the linux-image-extra kernel package.
$ sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-$(uname -r)
2. Add Docker Apt Repository
First import docker GPG key to verify packages signature before installing them with apt-get.
$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://p80.pool.sks-keyservers.net:80 --recv-keys 58118E89F3A912897C070ADBF76221572C52609D
Now create a new apt configuration file /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list and one of below docker
For Ubuntu Wily 15.10
deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-wily main
For Ubuntu Trusty 14.04 (LTS)
deb https://apt.dockerproject.org/repo ubuntu-trusty main
3. Install Docker
First make sure there are no old repositories added in your system. Purge them before installing them.
$ sudo apt-get purge lxc-docker
Now use the following commands to upgrade apt index and install docker engine on your system.
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install docker-engine
After successful installation of Docker engine, Let’s start the docker service.
$ sudo service docker start
