os VS darch

And in the end we got a screenshot of a kernel-dump when we moved some nodes to VMs, which led us to this

I wonder if that's a job for rancherOS since everything in rancherOS is a docker container, https://rancher.com/docs/os/v1.x/en/ . Or is there some better compact OS?

The closest I can think of is the docker. If OP likes docker in their docker then they can start with RancherOS.

RancherOS 2.0.0 alpha01 was out 2 days ago : https://github.com/rancher/os/releases/tag/v2.0.0-alpha01

Was it RancherOS?

> RancherOS is the smallest, easiest way to run Docker in production. Every process in RancherOS is a container managed by Docker. This includes system services such as udev and syslog. Because it only includes the services necessary to run Docker, RancherOS is significantly smaller than most traditional operating systems.

The nodes are thus totally neutral now. As a result, their templates are greatly simplified, and they can now easily be managed in an immutable way. This new paradigm opened the way to new Operating Systems specialized for container orchestration, such as CoreOS or RancherOS, whose life cycles are meant to be managed with an immutable workflow.

For this example, I'll be using a VPS on DigitalOcean running RancherOS with 2 CPUs and 2GB RAM. RancherOS a lightweight OS designed for hosting containers. If you'd prefer to use another distribution, you'll need to make sure Docker Engine is installed. Instructions for installing Docker Engine can be found in the Docker documentation. Any cloud provider will work just fine but I'd suggest the specs above as minimums.

When you say RancherOS do you mean "using Rancher" or do you also mean using RancherOS for your k8s nodes?

This reminds me of a tool I wrote (and still use to this day), Darch

Here's some backstory: https://github.com/godarch/darch/issues/54
