# Installation
[TOC]
> Note: gVisor supports only x86\_64 and requires Linux 4.14.77+
> ([older Linux](./networking.md#gso)).
## Install latest release {#install-latest}
To download and install the latest release manually follow these steps:
```bash
(
set -e
URL=https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/release/latest
wget ${URL}/runsc ${URL}/runsc.sha512
sha512sum -c runsc.sha512
rm -f runsc.sha512
sudo mv runsc /usr/local/bin
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/runsc
)
```
To install gVisor with Docker, run the following commands:
```bash
/usr/local/bin/runsc install
sudo systemctl restart docker
docker run --rm --runtime=runsc hello-world
```
For more details about using gVisor with Docker, see
[Docker Quick Start](./quick_start/docker.md)
Note: It is important to copy `runsc` to a location that is readable and
executable to all users, since `runsc` executes itself as user `nobody` to avoid
unnecessary privileges. The `/usr/local/bin` directory is a good place to put
the `runsc` binary.
## Install from an `apt` repository
First, appropriate dependencies must be installed to allow `apt` to install
packages via https:
```bash
sudo apt-get update && \
sudo apt-get install -y \
apt-transport-https \
ca-certificates \
curl \
gnupg-agent \
software-properties-common
```
Next, the configure the key used to sign archives and the repository:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://gvisor.dev/archive.key | sudo apt-key add -
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases release main"
```
Now the runsc package can be installed:
```bash
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y runsc
```
If you have Docker installed, it will be automatically configured.
## Versions
The `runsc` binaries and repositories are available in multiple versions and
release channels. You should pick the version you'd like to install. For
experimentation, the nightly release is recommended. For production use, the
latest release is recommended.
After selecting an appropriate release channel from the options below, proceed
to the preferred installation mechanism: manual or from an `apt` repository.
### HEAD
Binaries are available for every commit on the `master` branch, and are
available at the following URL:
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/master/latest/runsc`
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/master/latest/runsc.sha512`
You can use this link with the steps described in
[Install latest release](#install-latest).
For `apt` installation, use the `master` to configure the repository:
```bash
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases master main"
```
### Nightly
Nightly releases are built most nights from the master branch, and are available
at the following URL:
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/nightly/latest/runsc`
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/nightly/latest/runsc.sha512`
You can use this link with the steps described in
[Install latest release](#install-latest).
Specific nightly releases can be found at:
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/nightly/${yyyy-mm-dd}/runsc`
Note that a release may not be available for every day.
For `apt` installation, use the `nightly` to configure the repository:
```bash
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases nightly main"
```
### Latest release
The latest official release is available at the following URL:
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/release/latest`
You can use this link with the steps described in
[Install latest release](#install-latest).
For `apt` installation, use the `release` to configure the repository:
```bash
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases release main"
```
### Specific release
A given release release is available at the following URL:
`https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases/release/${yyyymmdd}`
You can use this link with the steps described in
[Install latest release](#install-latest).
See the [releases](https://github.com/google/gvisor/releases) page for
information about specific releases.
For `apt` installation of a specific release, which may include point updates,
use the date of the release for repository, e.g. `${yyyymmdd}`.
```bash
sudo add-apt-repository "deb https://storage.googleapis.com/gvisor/releases yyyymmdd main"
```
> Note: only newer releases may be available as `apt` repositories.
### Point release
A given point release is available at the following URL:

After installation, try out `runsc` by following the
[Docker Quick Start](./quick_start/docker.md) or
[OCI Quick Start](./quick_start/oci.md).
