Could we publish an official Docker image for Puppy Linux to DockerHub? That way, Puppy Linux could be used in containerized environments!

I think it would be a good idea !?

I have considered it, did experimentation with getting a Docker Puppy to take a walk.

It looks feasible all though ran into some memory allotment snafu and suspended the effort at the time to work on learning forum software better and building desktops on different types of WeeDog's

I know bugger-all about this kinda thing, but it seems to me that perhaps an adaptation of Barry's EasyOS might be a good base from which to work.....since it already uses "containers" anyway?

(*shrug*)

Just a thought, FWIW.

Hello Mike,

You guessed it. I did use EasyOS for the experiments. Although I never created a Puppy Linux Docker image, the container concept in EasyOS is also really effective.
