I'm working through "The Docker Book", am on chapter 3, installing and running an Ubuntu container. I'm on Windows 7.1, using Boot2Docker.
Here's what happens when I try to run it (this is the second attempt, so it already has a local copy of the image):
$ docker run -i -t ubuntu /bin/bash
exec: "C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash": stat C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash: no such file or directory
FATA[0000] Error response from daemon: Cannot start container 5e985b0b101bb9584ea3e40355089a54d1fba29655d5a1e0900c9b32c4f7e4c4: [8] System error: exec: "C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash": stat C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash: no such file or directory
Status:
$ docker ps -a

It's complaining about lack of C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash, but I certainly have that on my machine:
$ ls -l "c:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash"
-rwxr-xr-x 1 neilw Administ 598016 May 4 09:27 c:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/bash
Any thoughts?
This works for me:
docker run -t -i ubuntu //bin/bash
The double // avoids the conversion[1]
