Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/sickcodes/Docker-OSX/issues/332

for both naked and auto images how do I persist installation of the os across restart?

My goal is to use this image to debug my websites on safari and do some development but I noticed there is no bind mount or whatsoever in both naked and auto images.

I am same commands as given in example -
i.e.

for naked:

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v "${PWD}/mac_hdd_ng_auto.img:/image" \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:naked

for auto:

docker run -it \
    --device /dev/kvm \
    -p 50922:10022 \
    -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix \
    -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" \
    -e "OSX_COMMANDS=/bin/bash -c \"pwd && uname -a\"" \
    sickcodes/docker-osx:auto

H 👋🏻, I'm a mac newbie (installation seems daunting ). Got the same issue here, the partition disappears after re-running docker run -it --device /dev/kvm -p 50922:10022 -v /tmp/.X11-unix:/tmp/.X11-unix -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" sickcodes/docker-osx:big-sur
