Should the docker installation work with the WSL and ubuntu 18.04? complains about daemon...

@GerfriedC You're going to have to supply more information than that - is there a specific error message displayed somewhere? Can you paste it here?

I don't personally know of anyone using the OSRM Docker image with WSL, but it doesn't do anything particularly special, so I don't know why it wouldn't work if Docker normally works with WSL.

(For others reading, WSL = https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Subsystem_for_Linux )

@GerfriedC, perhaps helpful, I recently wrote up some notes in a gist for WSL users trying to run OSRM. I have tested this with a scratch build on Windows 10 with WSL 18.04.

If you are getting an error message complaining about a daemon, my guess would be that you are not running the background process required to run docker (saw a similar error recently).
