The examples we have used in this chapter have been launching Ubuntu instances. Docker Machine also supports:
Debian (8.0+) - https://www.debian.org/
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (7.0+) - https://www.redhat.com/
CentOS (7+) - https://www.centos.org/
Fedora (21+) - https://getfedora.org/
RancherOS (0.3) - http://rancher.com/rancher-os/
The other thing to mention about Docker Machine is that by default it operates an opt-in for crash reporting, considering the number of different configuration /environment combinations Docker Machine can be used with it is important that Docker gets notified of any problems to help them make a better product.
If for any reason, you want to opt out, then running the following command will disable crash reporting:
mkdir -p ~/.docker/machine && touch ~/.docker/machine/no-error-report
