Docker.io 是轻量级的“容器引擎+映像仓库”，在LXC（linux轻量级容器）的基础上构建，可以运行任何应用程序。
docker.io的核心层由以下几个部分组成:
1、可执行程序，“/usr/bin/docker”
2、docker.io网站上有一系列创建好的操作系统和应用程序映像
3、AUFS（另一个统一文件系统）来实现文件系统的快照，文件变化，控制只读或读写的需求。
4、LXC（Linux轻量级容器）
5、Cgroups（各种资源和命名空间的管理）
在本文写作的时候，最新版本是0.5.3，但目前开发很活跃，一些功能和特性可能在新版本中会发生变化。
按下面的步骤安装docker.io：
0、安装centos6.x
1、因为selinux和LXC有冲突，所以需要禁用
[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/selinux/config
# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
# enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.
# permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.
# disabled - SELinux is fully disabled.
SELINUX=disabled
# SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are:
# targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected.
# strict - Full SELinux protection.
SELINUXTYPE=targeted2、配置Fedora EPEL 源
sudo yum install http://ftp.riken.jp/Linux/fedora/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm3、配置hop5.in源
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
sudo wget http://www.hop5.in/yum/el6/hop5.repo4、安装docker-io
[root@localhost ~]# yum install docker-io

[root@localhost ~]#5、检查安装情况
[root@localhost ~]# docker -h
Usage of docker:
-D=false: Debug mode
-H=[unix:///var/run/docker.sock]: tcp://host:port to bind/connect to or unix://path/to/socket to use
-api-enable-cors=false: Enable CORS requests in the remote api.
-b="": Attach containers to a pre-existing network bridge. Use 'none' to disable container networking
-d=false: Daemon mode
-dns="": Set custom dns servers
-g="/var/lib/docker": Path to graph storage base dir.
-p="/var/run/docker.pid": File containing process PID
-r=false: Restart previously running containers6、要想docker正常运行还需要在/etc/fstab里增加cgroup文件系统
[root@localhost ~]# echo "none /sys/fs/cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
[root@localhost ~]# mount /sys/fs/cgroup只有重新启动才能挂载/sys/fs/cgroup（因为当前运行的内核不支持cgroup），所以上面挂载的命令也可以不执行，但系统需要重新启动。
7、重启系统，选择“3.10.5-3.el6.x86_64”内核
8、系统启动后，确认当前运行的内核
[root@localhost ~]# uname -r
3.10.5-3.el6.x86_64
[root@localhost ~]# grep aufs /proc/filesystems
nodev aufs9、以守护模式运行docker.io（在一个新的终端里）
[root@localhost ~]# docker -d
2013/08/21 07:47:07 WARNING: Your kernel does not support cgroup swap limit.
2013/08/21 07:47:07 Listening for HTTP on /var/run/docker.sock (unix)10、在centos6.4容器里输出hello world
[root@localhost ~]# docker run centos:6.4 echo "hello world"
2013/08/21 07:48:41 POST /v1.4/containers/create
2013/08/21 07:48:41 POST /v1.4/containers/c6bc9e80097e/start
2013/08/21 07:48:41 POST /v1.4/containers/c6bc9e80097e/attach?logs=1&stderr=1&stdout=1&stream=1
hello world11、从容器里测试ping
[root@localhost ~]# docker -dns '8.8.8.8' run centos:6.4 ping -c 3 yahoo.com
2013/08/21 08:02:15 POST /v1.4/containers/create

14: PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Couldn't resolve host 'mirrorlist.centos.org'"可以执行下面的命令来重置docker的运行环境，从而解决上述问题。
pkill docker
iptables -t nat -F
ifconfig docker0 down
brctl delbr docker0
docker -d感谢sciurus在创建kernel-ml-aufs的相关文件时付出的辛勤工作。
