Older versions of Docker over Docker Machine

Docker logo

Sometimes we may need use different versions of Docker on our machine. We may interest this functionality in order to support older versions of Docker on our developments. In my case, I needed an older version of Docker because new versions of Docker require ‘Content-Length’ header to download images from a repository(The rest is another history).

We may deploy any versions of Docker using Docker Machine just adding the '--virtualbox-boot2docker-url' parameter:

docker-machine create -d virtualbox --virtualbox-boot2docker-url https://github.com/boot2docker/boot2docker/releases/download/v18.09.8/boot2docker.iso ics2

I hope help anyone with this tip.
