Issue

The default Docker installation script provided by Docker tries to use the kali-rolling release, which Docker does not officially support. We need to manually adjust the repository to use a supported Debian release, such as bullseye, even when using the Docker installation script.

Here are the steps to manually set the Docker repository to bullseye and then proceed with the installation:

1. Remove Existing Docker List File: If the script has already created the Docker list file, remove it:
Copy

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list

2. Add the Correct Docker Repository Manually: Add the Docker repository for Debian bullseye which is compatible with Kali Linux:
Copy

echo "deb [arch=arm64 signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.asc] <https://download.docker.com/linux/debian> bullseye stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null

3. Update the Package Index: Update the package index to include Docker’s packages:
Copy

sudo apt update

4. Install Docker: Install Docker Engine, CLI, and containerd:
Copy

sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

5. Verify the Docker Installation: Check the Docker version to verify the installation:
Copy

sudo docker --version

6. Start and Enable Docker Service: Start Docker and enable it to start on boot:
Copy

sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker

7. Run a Test Docker Container: Verify that Docker is working by running a test container:
Copy

sudo docker run hello-world
