Hi, although I do not know how to work with docker, I managed to install it and was able to run and install my Mac os following the README and reading through the issues.

The problem now I am having is how do I get back my MacOs that I had installed. I tried running docker start of the previously created container, but it only prints out the container id, and if I try running the docker run **** command which was prev used it creates a new instance of container. I think this is what was supposed to happen but, I am getting lost here.

How do I re run my prev created container, i guess

Thanks

Hi I tried docker start container-id and it did nothing? Just prints the container id and nothing

The container is running, which means it might not be the right machine, or it didn't start correct.

Open all of them

docker start $(docker ps -q --all)
docker start $(docker ps -q --all --filter "ancestor=sickcodes/docker-osx")

and then close the ones you don't want

And then docker ps and save that name

then you can do docker start

I have the same problem as @igaurab. Here's the log

$ docker start 70766a2c9a69
70766a2c9a69

$ docker ps --all --filter "ancestor=sickcodes/docker-osx"
CONTAINER ID        IMAGE                  COMMAND                CREATED             STATUS                      PORTS               NAMES
70766a2c9a69        sickcodes/docker-osx   "./OpenCore-Boot.sh"   3 hours ago         Exited (1) 13 seconds ago                       elastic_varahamihira

I couldn't figure out how to start the installed image. Helps would be appreciate, thanks.
