VM creation fails on OSX 10.8.5 #96

Closed yscumc closed 6 years ago

yscumc commented 9 years ago

I installed Boot2Docker-1.4.1.pkg on OSX 10.8.5 and afterwards opened Applications/boot2docker.app. After the SSH key was generated, I see the following error:

error in run: Failed to initialize machine "boot2docker-vm": exit status 2
bash-3.2$ /usr/local/bin/boot2docker up 
Waiting for VM and Docker daemon to start...
..........................................................................ooooo

~/VirtualBox VMs/boot2docker-vm/Logs/VBox.log shows that the VM was hung because there's no harddisk connected. Sure enough, in ~/VirtualBox VMs/boot2docker-vm/boot2docker-vm.vbox, under <MediaRegistry>, I see <HardDisks/> and <DVDImages/>, confirming there's no bootable media mounted.

What fixed it (hit ctrl-c to stop the waiting and typed it into the same terminal):

boot2docker poweroff
boot2docker delete
boot2docker init
boot2docker start

This seems similar to the issue at https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker-cli/issues/148 but I don't think it's anything to do with DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

Sorry, this repository is long-since deprecated in favor of Docker Toolbox (whose usage is now also discouraged in favor of Docker for Windows and Docker for Mac).
