#Setting up Docker Machine on Raspberry PI

  1. SSH into the pi and install docker with curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh (If we let Machine try to install the Docker daemon it will fail.)
  2. Change the OS's ID so Docker Machine won't throw errors. sudo nano /etc/os-release and change the line that says ID=raspbian to ID=debian
  3. From a new terminal window run docker-machine create --driver generic --generic-ip-address YOUR-PIS-IP --generic-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_rsa --generic-ssh-user pi --engine-storage-driver overlay2 MACHINE-NAME
