Ah! I see.  
Can’t find anything regarding firmware updates for VM images though.

I think you’d ask in the forum topic as mentioned at the support site:

I’ve an old HP mini-pc running Debian 13 with GUI. It runs H.A. as VirtualBox image like a charm. For me it was the easiest way to start with H.A. back in the day, plus we can’t use the add-ons part of H.A. on Docker.

Homey SHS was installed as Docker Compose image and it works (just fiddling with it).

About adding Aeotec devices:  
Did you throw in a Homey Bridge for z-wave?  
Or do you have something like SMhub?
