Each time I boot my container the install gets a new serial number. Is this by design? And can this be set to a fixed serial number since the iMac Pro devices keep piling up in iOS. Preferably without having to reinstall the entire thing.

Think I found it:

docker run -i --device /dev/kvm --name=docker-osx -p 50922:10022 -p 5999:5999 -e "DISPLAY=${DISPLAY:-:0.0}" -e GENERATE_SPECIFIC=true -e DEVICE_MODEL="iMacPro1,1" -e SERIAL="XXX" -e BOARD_SERIAL="XXX" -e UUID="XXX" -e MAC_ADDRESS="XXX" -e EXTRA="-display none -vnc 0.0.0.0:99,password=on" sickcodes/docker-osx:ventura

Did have to completely reinstall the container though.
