+
+The `docker create` command creates a writeable container layer over
+the specified image and prepares it for running the specified command.
+The container ID is then printed to `STDOUT`.
+This is similar to `docker run -d` except the container is never started.
+You can then use the `docker start <container_id>` command to start the
+container at any point.
+
+This is useful when you want to set up a container configuration ahead
+of time so that it is ready to start when you need it.
+
+### Example:
+
+    $ sudo docker create -t -i fedora bash
+    6d8af538ec541dd581ebc2a24153a28329acb5268abe5ef868c1f1a261221752
+    $ sudo docker start -a -i 6d8af538ec5
+    bash-4.2#
