+# Example container definitions
+
+The container definitions in the `examples/` directory aren't pre-built as
+containers published by Warewulf.
+
+Typical reasons may include:
+
+* The resultant container would be too large.
+* The definition is too specific to be broadly useful, and covering a wide
+  enough set of versions would be impractical.
+* The definition uses software that may not be redistributed.

+# Rocky Linux with the Mellanox OFED
+
+This container definition demonstrates building a Rocky Linux based container
+incorporating the Mellanox OFED for InfiniBand support.
+
+This definition requires that the [Mellanox OFED .tgz][1] for the desired
+version be placed in the `rockylinux-9-mofed` directory.
+
+[1]: https://network.nvidia.com/products/infiniband-drivers/linux/mlnx_ofed/
+
+With that in place, the container may be built with Podman.
+
+```shell
+
+podman build . --volume $PWD:/mnt:ro --file Containerfile
+```
