Deploying KubeVirt has just gotten easier

With the latest release (v1.12) of minikube we can now deploy KubeVirt with a one-liner.

Deploy minikube

1. Start minikube. Since my host is Fedora 32 I will use --driver=kvm2 and I will also use --container-runtime=crio
   minikube start --driver=kvm2 --container-runtime=cri-o
   
   
   
   
   
2. Check that kubectl client is working correctly
   kubectl cluster-info
   
   
   
   
   
3. Enable the minikube kubevirt addon
   minikube addons enable kubevirt
   
   
   
   
   
4. Verify KubeVirt components have been deployed to the kubevirt namespace
   kubectl get ns; kubectl get all -n kubevirt
   
   
   
   
   

SUCCESS

From here a user can proceed on to the Kubevirt Laboratory 1: Use KubeVirt

As you can see it is now much easier to deploy KubeVirt in a minikube Kubernetes environment.
