Docker isolates containers using cgroups and namespaces. The installer failed to find /sys/fs/cgroup. Either this is not present inside your Debian chroot environment, or, your kernel is too old for cgroup support (pretty likely on Android).

  • Does the /sys/ directory exist for you?

  • What kernel are you running? (uname -a). Docker requires 3.10 or later.
