# Linux (Docker) Install
> Run GenieX via Docker on Linux ARM64 with NPU access.
The Linux Docker path runs through a container image built for Linux ARM64 with NPU access (Dragonwing QCS9075 and similar IoT platforms).
### **Prerequisites**
* Linux ARM64 host with Docker installed — if you don't have Docker yet, follow [Docker's Ubuntu install guide](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/ubuntu/).
* Dragonwing IoT chipset — see [Supported platforms](/en/get-started/platforms).
* Credentials with read access to one of the registries below.
### **Pull the image**
The image is published to two registries — pick whichever you have access to and set `IMAGE` accordingly, then pull:
```bash bash theme={"dark"}
# Option A — Docker Hub (public, no login required):
IMAGE=docker.io/qualcomm/geniex:latest
# Option B — Qualcomm Container Registry:
docker login docker-registry.qualcomm.com -u '$app' -p GB2S6KXMJXTPV8VHNFNS7Q6LVH75LOOBTLT8D723WUX6PSFZMTX95GIQG4EFWH5C021ONZ5763VI9IDHU96Q7VAZJ2830CLX3NPI6STQOJWRYXLLA2ZYTL1S
IMAGE=docker-registry.qualcomm.com/qcom-ai-hub/geniex-cli:latest
docker pull "$IMAGE"
```
If `docker login` fails or `docker pull` returns `permission denied ... /var/run/docker.sock`, see [Troubleshooting → Linux](/en/resources/troubleshooting#linux) for the credential and `docker` group fixes.
### **Run interactively**
Drop into an interactive shell inside the container:
```bash bash theme={"dark"}
docker run -it --rm --privileged \
-v "$PWD/data:/data" \
-v /usr/lib:/opt/qcom-lib:ro \
"$IMAGE"
```
### **Verify**
Then run a test command from the container shell:
```bash bash theme={"dark"}
geniex --help
```
The `--privileged` flag is required for NPU access.
For server mode, see [Local server](/en/run/cli/local-server).
## **CLI**
For the full CLI Docker install guide, see [CLI Install — Linux ARM64 (Docker)](/en/run/cli/install).
## **Python**
For the full Python install guide on native Linux ARM64, see [Python Install — Linux ARM64](/en/run/python/install).
The Python SDK can be installed inside the Docker container or directly on the Linux ARM64 host. See the [Linux ARM64 tab](/en/run/python/install) for native install instructions.
