 `quota` and `acl` options will be honored.
 
 
+Using quotas inside containers
+------------------------------
+
+Quotas allow to set limits inside a container for the amount of disk space
+that each user can use.
+This only works on ext4 image based storage types and currently does not work
+with unprivileged containers.
+
+Activating the `quota` option causes the following mount options to be used for
+a mountpoint: `usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0`
+
+This allows quotas to be used like you would on any other system. You can
+initialize the `/aquota.user` and `/aquota.group` files by running
+
+ quotacheck -cmug /
+ quotaon /
+
+and edit the quotas via the `edquota` command. Refer to the documentation
+of the distribution running inside the container for details.
+
+NOTE: You need to run the above commands for every mountpoint by passing
+the mountpoint's path instead of just `/`.
+
+Using ACLs inside containers
+----------------------------
+
+The standard Posix Access Control Lists are also available inside containers. 
+ACLs allow you to set more detailed file ownership than the traditional user/
+group/others model.
