Excellent image of ubuntu 16.04 server with no frills which I was able to build on. Built an apache website and moved my own forums (phpbb) to the Banana Pi M3. Also installed WordPress and pi-hole on it to boot. Was able to take this release to Ubuntu 17.10 in place without issues. I personally don’t need anything else for my own setup to start with and build on.
There are no pictures, it’s basically a vanilla Ubuntu server; terminal and all that. Without apps for fancy browsing on the internet, etc…, which I sure those in the know would be able to build a complete Ubuntu 17.10 desktop distribution anyway.
I’ve had a look and the wlan interface and its components are coming up okay on system startup. WIll try the wireless completely tomorrow night inbound to the server. I’ll use the antenna on the board itself. Will report back tomorrow then…
Wait some minutes until it finishes. Then power it off, remove SD, and power it up!
It may fsck, because the system didn’t dismount the fs properly before cloning, but that’s all!
You shouldn’t clone a live system, but it just works!
Does not support. I checked. The linux kernel version of this image is 3.4.39-BPI-M3-Kernel but docker supports 3.10.0 or newer.

But I found a way to prevent this warnings. If you put the variable DOCKER_NOWARN_KERNEL_VERSION=1 (DOCKER_NOWARN_KERNEL_VERSION) at the end of the file /etc/sysconfig/docker (CentOS image), the warning disappeares. But it will lead to the next error, that this kernel does not support overlay (Some kind of network). But it’s probably not necessary for you. Perhaps there is a way to avoid this.
I’m also looking for an opportunity to install a docker to the BPI M3. But now I did not find anything(
