Hi,

I'm running the Chapter 2 Labs and the systemd-container package (first step in systemd-nspawn part) is no available. Is there any other package to use? Without this package I cant use systemd-nspawn to create the contariner.

Thanks!

Robson

    Hi Robson, 

    Which OS you are trying it out ? The instructions are given for Ubuntu 16.04. Sometimes you might need to update the package index with following command to refresh the package list :-

    $ apt update 

    Please run the above command and then try just installing "systemd-container" package. 

    Thanks.

    The runC package is apparently missing from manifest for this course. Kindly advise what correct name is for apt-get install?

  • Running lab from Chapter 4 in DigitalOcean I have found the same problem related to runC package.

    Instead of "runC", can you try installing "runc" package. 

    $ apt install runc
