I’ve done a fresh install on Unbuntu 16.04 and even did another fresh one to get the same error below.

```
standard_init_linux.go:195: exec user process caused "exec format error"
Your Docker installation is not working correctly

```

Hope you can help. I followed the official Discourse install guide.

Thanks 🙂
