+# Booting local builds
+
+In some scenarios, you may want to boot a *locally* built
+container image, in order to apply a persistent hotfix
+to a specific server, or as part of a development/testing
+scenario.
+
+## Building a new local image
+
+At the current time, the bootc host container storage is distinct
+from that of the `podman` container runtime storage (default
+configuration in `/var/lib/containers`).
+
+It not currently streamlined to export the booted host container
+storage into the podman storage.
+
+Hence today, to replicate the exact container image the
+host has booted, take the container image referenced
+in `bootc status` and turn it into a `podman pull`
+invocation.
+
+Next, craft a container build file with your desired changes:
+```
+FROM <image>
+RUN apt|dnf upgrade https://example.com/systemd-hotfix.package
+```
+
+## Copying an updated image into the bootc storage
+
+This command is straightforward; we just need to tell bootc
+to fetch updates from `containers-storage`, which is the
+local "application" container runtime (podman) storage:
+
+```
+$ bootc switch --transport containers-storage quay.io/fedora/fedora-bootc:40
+```
+
+From there, the new image will be queued for the next boot
+and a `reboot` will apply it.
+
