 ### Docker for Mac
 
 An initial blueprint for the open source components of Docker for Mac is available in [docker-for-mac](docker-for-mac). The blueprint has support for controlling `dockerd` from the host via `vsudd` and port forwarding with VPNKit. It requires HyperKit, VPNKit and a Docker client on the host to run. The easiest way to install these at the moment is to install a recent version of Docker for Mac.

+### Linux Containers On Windows (LCOW)
+
+The [LCOW](./lcow.yml) file contains the blueprint for building a
+minimal Linux kernel and initrd for Linux Containers on
+Windows. Invoke it with `moby build lcow.yml` and you get a
+`lcow-kernel` and `lcow-initrd.img`. Rename `lcow-kernel` to
+`bootx64.efi` and `lcow-initrd.img` to `initrd.img` and then
+follow
+[these instructions](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/33850). The
+process for creating the image is
+documented [here](https://github.com/Microsoft/opengcs).
