+See the :ref:`support matrix <support-matrix-base-images>` for information on
+supported base image distribution versions and supported images on each
+distribution.
+
+The Train ``9.1.0`` release supports both CentOS 7 and 8 base container images.
+The default is to use CentOS 7. CentOS 8 may be used as follows:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ kolla-build --base centos --base-tag 8
+
+Kolla uses the tag to set defaults for the distribution Python version and
+package manager. If you need to use a base image with a different tag, use the
+following options:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ kolla-build --base centos --base-image <base image> --base-tag <base tag> --distro-package-manager dnf --distro-python-version 3.6
