- If you use Debian derivatives such as "BunsenLabs Linux", "Kali Linux" or
"LMDE" (Debian-based Mint) should follow the installation instructions for
[Debian](debian.md), substitute the version of your distribution for the
corresponding Debian release. Refer to the documentation of your distribution to find
which Debian release corresponds with your derivative version.
- Likewise, if you use Ubuntu derivatives such as "Kubuntu", "Lubuntu" or "Xubuntu"
you should follow the installation instructions for [Ubuntu](ubuntu.md),
substituting the version of your distribution for the corresponding Ubuntu release.
Refer to the documentation of your distribution to find which Ubuntu release
corresponds with your derivative version.
- Some Linux distributions provide a package of Docker Engine through their
package repositories. These packages are built and maintained by the Linux
distribution's package maintainers and may have differences in configuration
or are built from modified source code. Docker isn't involved in releasing these
packages and you should report any bugs or issues involving these packages to
your Linux distribution's issue tracker.
> [!NOTE] Docker doesn't test or verify installation on distribution derivatives. These guidelines may not work.

#### Debian derivatives

#### Linux Distributions with Docker
Some Linux distributions provide a package of Docker Engine through their
package repositories. These packages are built and maintained by the Linux
distributions' package maintainers and may have differences in configuration
or are built from modified source code. Docker isn't involved in releasing these
packages. Any bugs or issues involving these packages to your Linux distribution's issue tracker.

### Docker Binary
Docker provides [binaries](binaries.md) for manual installation of Docker Engine.
These binaries are statically linked and you can use them on any Linux distribution.

## Release channels

Docker Engine has two types of update channels, **stable** and **test**:

* The **stable** channel gives you the latest versions released for general availability.
* The **test** channel gives you pre-release versions that are ready for testing before
* The **stable** channel is for the latest versions released for general availability.
* The **test** channel is for pre-release versions that are ready for testing before
general availability.

Use the test channel with caution. Pre-release versions include experimental and
early-access features that are subject to breaking changes.
