Dockerd on Tiny Core 8.0 x86 -- "overlay" not a supported filesystem

[Juanito]

I haven't checked, but if CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS can be set to "m" then perhaps you can get away with including the module(s) produced in an extension?

I have a public repo with files and scripts for compiling a TinyCore kernel.

  https://github.com/on-prem/tinycore-kernel

The latest one I posted there (4.9.66) contains the correct config for overlayfs (Docker) support.

The build instructions are in the README.md. Please read it carefully.

It might be better to update the wiki in case additional instructions are indeed necessarry. I don't like the idea that documentation is limited to a third party github repository.

Also the instructions there seem to suggest you'd have to use files from the github repository, while we are hosting the source files via very accessible http links. I don't like stuff scattered like this, it also creates a useless trust issue.

You can run dockerd without a custom kernel: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,21839.msg144726.html#msg144726
