Lately I had some troubles with the Docker Hyperkit (OS X) running out of diskspace. So I googled, trashed the .qwoc file, restarted Docker for Mac and voilá, up and running again.
However, as curious as I am, I wanted to know about the VM underneath Docker Hyperkit. I turned out to be accessible with this command:
screen ~/Library/Containers/com.docker.docker/Data/com.docker.driver.amd64-linux/tty
Whenever you get a black screen, just hit enter. I had no login at all, I just was root (!), others reported that they used the user ‘root’ with no password.
Docker is in /var/lib/docker
Uname -a printed:

Hit Ctrl+A, type :quit and you’re out!
