Issues with Setting up Minikube for gvisor

[ssarbadh]

There are multiple issues for setting up minikube when using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

1. There is no ubuntu user - Need to add an ubuntu user and then add it to docker group

useradd -m ubuntu -s /bin/bash
chown -R ubuntu.ubuntu /home/ubuntu
sudo usermod -aG docker ubuntu

2. While running minikube start - minikube fails at

[wait-control-plane] Waiting for the kubelet to boot up the control plane as static Pods from directory "/etc/kubernetes/manifests". This can take up to 4m0s
[kubelet-check] Initial timeout of 40s passed.

	Unfortunately, an error has occurred:
		timed out waiting for the condition

	This error is likely caused by:
		- The kubelet is not running
		- The kubelet is unhealthy due to a misconfiguration of the node in some way (required cgroups disabled)

There is no mention of setting up kubelet in the video or document ?

Solution -

Setup a newer version of minikube

 wget https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/releases/download/v1.32.0/minikube-linux-amd64

root@minikube-01:~# mv minikube-linux-amd64 minikube
root@minikube-01:~# chmod +x minikube
root@minikube-01:~# mv minikube /usr/local/bin/
root@minikube-01:~# minikube version
minikube version: v1.32.0
commit: 8220a6eb95f0a4d75f7f2d7b14cef975f050512d

minikube start --container-runtime=containerd  --docker-opt containerd=/var/run/containerd/containerd.sock --v=5 --extra-config=kubelet.cgroup-driver=systemd

Also use a server with atleast 4 GB ram or may be restrict the minikube memory
