Flatcar Container Linux bootstrap

General Flatcar Pre-Installation Notes:

  • Ensure that the bin_dir is set to /opt/bin
  • ansible_python_interpreter should be /opt/bin/python. This will be laid down by the bootstrap task.
  • The default resolvconf_mode setting of docker_dns does not work for Flatcar. This is because we do not edit the systemd service file for docker on Flatcar nodes. Instead, just use the host_resolvconf mode. It should work out of the box.

Then you can proceed to cluster deployment
