Running an Ubuntu 20.04 PPC VM on a Blackbird POWER9 host with Fedora 35 PPC as its host OS.

Trying to get a test Kubernetes cluster going on VMs, using Ubuntu 20.04 PPC as the VM OS. So this is inside the Ubuntu 20.04 VM.

While installing Kubernetes tools, I found that kubelet needs to be installed via a snap, and snap install kubectl --classic seemed to work and claimed to have installed it, but kubeadm init failed complaining about kubectl. systemctl status kubectl can't find the kubelet.service.

I'll be super surprised if anyone else has ever tried this, but I'm hoping for advice from people who understand kubernetes tools better than I do.

not a direct answer for the snap issue, but confirmed I was getting the same with the snap, so reverted to tried and true kubernetes.io repo:

kver="1.24.2-00"
curl -s https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add
echo "deb https://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list
sudo apt-get update

for k in kubelet kubeadm kubectl; do sudo apt-get install -y ${k}=$kver; done
sudo apt-mark hold kubelet kubeadm kubectl
