sudo docker run -d -p 4443:4443 -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
    --name nextcloudpi \
    -v /mnt/data:/data \
    -v /mnt/ncdata:/ncdata \
    ownyourbits/nextcloudpi

This command will download and install the latest version of NextCloudPi on your Fedora CoreOS machine.

After running the command, wait for a few minutes to complete the installation process.
