This is fixed in the upstream atomic package, I believe you are running this on a system with no images.

Dan, so is this just a matter of building upstream with the cherry-picked fix? I can reproduce this error using both rhel-tools and fedora images, even after the images have been pulled.

See if you can merge b0587e2b624a4d532f0b4c6736a9e70a6d2103af

    Merge pull request #277 from rhatdan/images
    
    Make git_images always return a list.

So 1.8-6.git1bc3814 (commit#1bc3814 dated 01/26) already includes commit#b0587e2 dated 01/17

No, in my example in the very first comment, I have multiple images already installed.  Including the image I am trying to run.

Could you try this on atomic-1.9.

Will try to reproduce with 1.9; setting need-info as a reminder.

Using atomic 1.9 from git on F23 worked for me

# ./atomic --version
1.9
# ./atomic run registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/rhel-tools
docker run -it --name rhel-tools --privileged --ipc=host --net=host --pid=host -e HOST=/host -e NAME=rhel-tools -e IMAGE=registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/rhel-tools -v /run:/run -v /var/log:/var/log -v /etc/machine-id:/etc/machine-id -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime -v /:/host registry.access.redhat.com/rhel7/rhel-tools

This container uses privileged security switches:

INFO: --ipc=host 
      Processes in this container can see and possibly interact with all semaphores and shared memory segments on the host as well as disables SELinux within the container.

INFO: --net=host 
      Processes in this container can listen to ports (and possibly rawip traffic) on the host's network.

INFO: --pid=host 
      Processes in this container can see and interact with all processes on the host and disables SELinux within the container.

INFO: --privileged 
      This container runs without separation and should be considered the same as root on your system.

For more information on these switches and their security implications, consult the manpage for 'docker run'.
