I have just pulled the repository and tried the sudo make install created nvidia-docker launcher. I have been using Nvidia-docker on other computers using the old script launcher.

I just installed Ubuntu on this computer, installed the NVIDIA drivers for my graphics card, CUDA, Docker, Sublime-Text and now this, so I feel confident that this is not a conflict with something else.

At the moment, if I run
nvidia-docker run -v /home/me:/home/me my_image
It tells me: Error parsing reference: "/home/me:/home/me" is not a valid repository/tag
However, if I run
nvidia-docker run --volume /home/me:/home/me my_image
It starts the image correctly.
Additionally:

• docker run -v /home/me:/home/me my_image runs fine, and
• I get the same error as above when I run the same command without the 'my_image' at the end.

Something similar happens for the '-p' command.

It seems to be parsing single-character options as if they have no additional parameters, and so parses the next thing passed as the image to start, and the rest as commands for the image
