Support other OS about dockstarter HOT 4 CLOSED

Fedora Instructions (copied from another conversation)

The readme on the repo starts off with you running this https://github.com/GhostWriters/DockSTARTer#one-time-setup-required but obviously you won't be doing that because Fedora doesn't use APT. Instead please run

sudo dnf upgrade --refresh
sudo reboot

If Fedora doesn't have sudo you'll want to run those as root (and please let me know if that's the case).

After rebooting clone the repo just like the readme instructs

sudo dnf install git
git clone https://github.com/GhostWriters/DockSTARTer ~/.docker

Next you'll need to comment out a line of code that prevents running on DNF systems (Fedora).

nano ~/.docker/scripts/update_system.sh

With the nano editor open comment or remove this line fatal "Systems with DNF package manager are not yet supported by DockSTARTer." (should be line 10)

Now you should be able to actually run DS using this command from the readme

sudo bash ~/.docker/main.sh

And aside from the menu itself running we need to confirm the Install Dependencies menu option works. This will run through some DNF commands to run another update and install some dependencies like curl (it's fine if you already have it), install a binary for yq, install docker, docker-compose, bash tab completion for both, and then prompt you to reboot.

Once all that's done if you would post the contents of your /tmp/dockstarter.log file (use pastebin as needed) and let me know if it worked or seemed to snag anywhere.

CentOS Instructions (copied from another conversation)

The readme on the repo starts off with you running this https://github.com/GhostWriters/DockSTARTer#one-time-setup-required but obviously you won't be doing that because CentOS doesn't use APT. Instead please run

sudo yum upgrade
sudo reboot

If CentOS doesn't have sudo you'll want to run those as root (and please let me know if that's the case).

After rebooting clone the repo just like the readme instructs

sudo yum install git
git clone https://github.com/GhostWriters/DockSTARTer ~/.docker

Next you'll need to comment out a line of code that prevents running on YUM systems (CentOS).

nano ~/.docker/scripts/update_system.sh

With the nano editor open comment or remove this line fatal "Systems with YUM package manager are not yet supported by DockSTARTer." (should be line 14)

Now you should be able to actually run DS using this command from the readme

sudo bash ~/.docker/main.sh

And aside from the menu itself running we need to confirm the Install Dependencies menu option works.

I've run the test myself on Fedora minimal. I had to install nano to edit the script (shouldn't be needed long term). I also had to install newt using dnf in order for whiptail to work. This should be included with installing git in the readme.

Fedora is good to go.

FYI posting here too, I tested CentOS the same as I tested Fedora and made the PR #189 to address the required changes.
