Install Ubuntu on Docker using Package

Anyone can download the deb file for your release and install it manually. You need to download a new file each time you want to upgrade Docker Engine. The most preferred way to do this is to use Docker’s apt repository.

Below are the steps to install docker on ubuntu using the package:

  1. Go to this Official Link of Ubuntu to Download the Packages.
  2. Select the version you want to install
  3. Go to pool/stable/ and select the applicable architecture (amd64armhfarm64, or s390x).
  4. Download the following deb files for the Docker Engine, CLI, containerd, and Docker Compose packages:
  • containerd.io_<version>_<arch>.deb
  • docker-ce_<version>_<arch>.deb
  • docker-ce-cli_<version>_<arch>.deb
  • docker-buildx-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb
  • docker-compose-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb

Now Install the .deb packages. Update the paths in the following example to where you downloaded the Docker packages.

$ sudo dpkg -i ./containerd.io_<version>_<arch>.deb \
  ./docker-ce_<version>_<arch>.deb \
  ./docker-ce-cli_<version>_<arch>.deb \
  ./docker-buildx-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb \
  ./docker-compose-plugin_<version>_<arch>.deb


The Docker daemon starts automatically. Verify that the Docker Engine installation is successful by running the hello-world image.

$ sudo service docker start
$ sudo docker run hello-world


This command downloads a test image and runs it in a docker container. When the container runs, it prints a confirmation message and exits.

The above means docker installation is completed.
