How to start minishift on Fedora-33

update: minishift is basically dead and won't support OpenShift 4. You probably want to use crc instead.

I just spent too much time trying to start minishift with my user account. After 3 hours fighting with permission issues between libvirt and the ~/.minishift directory, I've finally decided to stay sane and use sudo... This is how I start minishift on my Fedora 33.

Install and start libvirt

sudo dnf install -y libvirt qemu-kvm
sudo systemctl start libvirtd

Fetch and install minishift and the kvm driver

sudo dnf install -y origin-clients
curl -L https://github.com/minishift/minishift/releases/download/v1.34.3/minishift-1.34.3-linux-amd64.tgz|sudo tar -C /usr/local/bin -xvz minishift-1.34.3-linux-amd64/minishift  --strip-components=1
sudo curl -L https://github.com/dhiltgen/docker-machine-kvm/releases/download/v0.10.0/docker-machine-driver-kvm-centos7 -o /usr/local/bin/docker-machine-driver-kvm
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-machine-driver-kvm

Start minishift (with sudo...)

sudo minishift

And configure the local user

sudo cp -r /root/.kube /home/goneri
sudo chown -R goneri:goneri /home/goneri/.kube
