 ## Configuration
 If you installed Lacus, you can configure AIL to use it as a crawler. For further information, please refer to the [HOWTO.md](https://github.com/ail-project/ail-framework/blob/master/HOWTO.md)
+
+## Using Images to run AIL
+If you want to use images to install AIL, you can download them from the ail-project [image website](https://images.ail-project.org/)
+
+After downloading the images, you can import them into LXD using the following command:
+```bash
+lxc image import <path_to_image> --alias <image_alias>
+```
+Now you can use the image to create a container:
+```bash 
+lxc launch <image_alias> <container_name>
+```
+
+To log into the container you need to know the automatically generated password. You can get it with the following command:
+```bash
+lxc exec <container_name> --  bash -c "grep '^password=' /home/ail/ail-framework/DEFAULT_PASSWORD | cut -d'=' -f2"
+```
+
+If you also want to use Lacus, you can do the same with the Lacus image. After that, you can configure AIL to use Lacus as a crawler. For further information, please refer to the [HOWTO.md](https://github.com/ail-project/ail-framework/blob/master/HOWTO.md).
+
+## Building the images locally
+If you want to build the images locally, you can use the `build.sh` script:
+```bash
+bash build.sh [OPTIONS]
