Ian Campbell ee7d785b84 kubernetes: minimise size of image cache images
The total size of the images in the common and control-plane cache is 251M and
528M respectively.

This changes drops the size of the cache images from 353M to 274M and from 630M
to 530M, reducing the overhead from ~100M to ~20M.

The initrd images shrink from 273M to 246M and from 416M to 363M (the initrd's
are compressed).

Kubernetes and LinuxKit

This project aims to demonstrate how one can create minimal and immutable Kubernetes OS images with LinuxKit.

Make sure to cd projects/kubernetes first.

Edit kube-master.yml and add your public SSH key to files section.

Build OS images:

make build-vm-images

Boot Kubernetes master OS image using hyperkit on macOS:

./boot.sh

Get IP address of the master:

ip addr show dev eth0

Login to the kubelet container:

./ssh_into_kubelet.sh <master-ip>

Manually initialise master with kubeadm:

kubeadm-init.sh

Once kubeadm exits, make sure to copy the kubeadm join arguments, and try kubectl get nodes from within the master.

To boot a node use:

./boot.sh <n> [<join_args> ...]

More specifically, to start 3 nodes use 3 separate shells and run this:

shell1> ./boot.sh 1 --token bb38c6.117e66eabbbce07d 192.168.65.22:6443
shell2> ./boot.sh 2 --token bb38c6.117e66eabbbce07d 192.168.65.22:6443
shell3> ./boot.sh 3 --token bb38c6.117e66eabbbce07d 192.168.65.22:6443
