I'm playing with containers on HAP AX3 ROS 7.18.2. I was able to get a freeradius container running as shown, but I've not been able to get Alpine:latest, or a custom Alpine or Ubuntu image working. They all get stuck extracting. The custom ones I built from very simple Dockerfiles, and used buildx like so before SCPing up the image.

docker buildx build --platform=linux/arm64 -t ubuntu .
docker save afe5ec7ce735 > ubuntu.tar

usb2 is where I'm pointing them, and it's a 32GB Ext4 filesystem with space.

   root-dir=usb2/freeradius mounts="" workdir="/" logging=yes status=running

Any ideas why extracting never finishes? It untar's okay when I do it from the build machine (Mac M1).

Hi,
You can download the Alpine container directly from registry-1.docker.io, but you need to use the following format:

<namespace>/<repository>:<tag>

For containers that do not have a namespace, you can use “library” as the namespace.
For example, to get Alpine, use:

library/alpine:latest
