Remove the previously installed packages, then try

curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh

root@odroid:~# curl -sSL https://get.docker.com | sh

I just moved from ubuntu to debian and got the same issues.

Which site are you following to install docker? I see your trying to run the script it doesnt work on all devices. Just install docker like normal.

I would try to remove docker and install the 32bit version of it.

sudo apt-get purge docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io

Then I would add the 32bit version of arm instead of the 64bit repository.

run sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Then remove the 64bit
then ctrl x to save

Then add the 32bit one

sudo add-apt-repository \
   "deb [arch=armhf] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu \
   $(lsb_release -cs) \
   stable"

I used the video from this thread:

and it went flawlessly.
You just have to follow the instructions from storj:

once docker is install because the video is quite old and a few things have changed.
And do not forget to get the arm version of the docker image and not the x86 ! I got that wrong a few times.

If you’re using focal, note that there isn’t an armhf target for docker-ce for some reason.

From download.docker.com:

On my Odroid HC2 nodes, I run Ubuntu 20.04 and just install docker.io from the stock Ubuntu repos. It installs Docker 19.03 which is new enough for running a Storj node. Remove all the docker-ce repos and try installing docker.io.
