I researched a bit on the topic. Vagrant Boxes seem useless because that would mean there is some virtual machine running behind (like Virtualbox), and <https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/docker/boxes.html> states that Vagrant Boxes are not required for Docker images to be running. However, it would still be nice to have such Debian Docker *image* that supports all the same things that current Debian Vagrant Boxes do (for example ssh so that vagrant provisioning could be used). Images at <https://hub.docker.com/_/debian/> currently miss these features. I will update you with more info if I think this is feasible to do and also if with Fai or not. Joonas
