You can set DBX_CONTAINER_HOME_PREFIX=~/allmyboxes in ~/.config/distrobox/distrobox.conf to do that. It will share ~/allmyboxes/my-debian-distrobox1 as the home dir.

If you pass --dry-run, it will spit out the underlying podman/docker command. That was frankly better than trying to find documentation.



Yeah I figured out eventually that I can use --home and --volume to set an alternative home and then mount individual dirs from my home into the container's home.

Thanks, I'm using distrobox now.
