@ -32,7 +32,7 @@ Docker Machine allows you to provision Docker on virtual machines that reside ei
To create a virtual machine, you supply Docker Machine with the name of the driver you want use. The driver represents the virtual environment. For example, on a local Linux, Mac, or Windows system the driver is typically Oracle Virtual Box. For cloud providers, Docker Machine supports drivers such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, Digital Ocean and many more. The Docker Machine reference includes a complete [list of the supported drivers](/drivers).
Since Docker runs on Linux, each VM that Docker Machine provisions relies on a base operating system. For convenience, there are default base operating systems. For the Oracle Virtual Box driver, this base operating system is the `boot2docker.iso`. For drivers used to connect to cloud providers, the base operating system is Ubuntu 12.04+. You can change this default when you create a machine. The Docker Machine reference includes a complete [list of the supported operating sytems](/drivers/os-base).

For each machine you create, the Docker host address is the IP address of the
Linux VM. This address is assigned by the `docker-machine create` subcommand.
