Hi,
Is it possible to run a docker container from the base image `FROM mendersoftware/mender-client-docker:2.4` inside a raspberry-pi-3? I am asking this because when building the image it alerts me that `standard_init_linux.go:219: exec user process caused: exec format error` and searching on that error it appears that it can be caused if the host OS is different from the container OS, in this case the host is armhf and I believe that the container based on that image is different from that.
Best,
Gabriel

I’ve not used that container myself but I suspect it is compiled for x86 and not for Arm. @oleorhagen do you know anything about this?

Hello, yes, this is due to the architecture mismatch. The images are packaged for `x86` like @drewmoseley says. It is possible to package this for ARM though for yourself, if this is required 🙂
