You don’t use snapshots or add-ons with just plain CORE. You can open the snapshot tar file, and copy your /config directory over to your install, but you have no add-ons. If you want the functionality, you need to spend a little time learning how to stand up docker containers.
I’ve tried Docker (I know it), that’s fine for HA but I had hard time finding how to install the supervisor. Lack of doc here 
Ok I don’t find ISO for standard linux machine ( no RPI, no nuc…)
I can use RPI image ISO for “standard” machine (old laptop)
Thanks
Because you DON’T.
You either install using the “soon to be deprecated” Supervised installer, or you run HassOS.
There is no such ISO.
erm. no. RPI is ARM, and laptops are typically x86/x86_64
Thanks for your help
So HassOS is only for ARM, we can install on x86/x86_64 ?
If we can, do you have some totu or guide line for installation HassOS on x86/x86_64
You should read this page. There are ready-to-go VM images for all architectures.
You cannot install it like a normal Linux distro, because, it’s not a normal Linux distro.
Try the fork that I made so you guys can used it to install supervisor
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/krdesigns-com/supervised-installer/master/installer.sh | bash -s

I have already check this Git project
But it’s only for :
Supported Machine types
intel-nuc
odroid-c2
odroid-n2
odroid-xu
qemuarm
qemuarm-64
qemux86
qemux86-64
raspberrypi
raspberrypi2
raspberrypi3
raspberrypi4
raspberrypi3-64
raspberrypi4-64
tinkerIf you use a x86_64 laptop, use
qemux86-64
Those are for your every day laptop/desktop computers…
Ok Thanks you all 
I will try this
Thank you for helping
Thanks for the work…
I get an error on the curl line:
curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/krdesigns-com/supervised-installer/master/installer.sh | bash -s
The error:
bash: line 146: /etc/hassio.json: Permission denied
but there is no /etc/hassio.json file, so what permission is denied?
Can someone tell me why the Supervised hass.io version isn’t available any more for a docker installation?
I’m pretty sure that when i started with Home Assistant a few month back the installation guide was there.
I’ve installed it on a NUC i already used for somthing else.
But now i wanted to try something out and used a virtualized Ubuntu machnies and i sadly found that only HA core is installed in docker?
How come?
What is the reason for this?

run “sudo su” first
I’ve done the same, installed via docker and not only am I missing alot of stuff, I can’t add addons or do anything else. If the docker version is so stripped down, what’s the point?

If you installed docker you have full access to the host system and can add any other containers to docker that you want… you just can’t use the Supervisor to add them in Home Assistant. Almost all the HA addons can be installed via docker manually. You seem to fundamentally misunderstand all this.
If you want HA addons then install either Home Assistant OS or Home Assistant Supervised which both give you the addon store instead of HA Container that you have.

@Shai_Perednik:
" … you just can’t use the Supervisor to add them in Home Assistant."
But ‘why’ has this changed (it was there before and still have it working on my NUC). What’s the underlying ‘reason’. I’m trying to understand why docker isn’t the way to go… instead of that the users are being pushed to a separate OS. Having a separate OS sounds like a few steps ‘back in time’ imho.
To many users doing dumb things on their supervised install and then swarming github with support questions. The supervised install is still there, but narrowed down to running on Debian and have no other software installed.
Also a bit confused.
https://github.com/home-assistant/supervised-installer = now archived
but this blog post say it is still one of the supported install methods:
