I get why the "outside" has no SSH, but I would not preclude the existence of a shell inside, busybox, you're back in the land of the UNIX living and all that entails.

#52Can I put a pod back inside, with SSH, and use it to kubectl exec my way into an interactive state? I get why the "outside" has no SSH, but I would not preclude the existence of a shell inside, busybox, you're back in the land of the UNIX living and all that entails.

#53It took me a lot of reading before understanding that this is an OS on which you run a Kubernetes node//master and not a so-called OS on top of Kubernetes. Somehow When I read "OS for Kubernetes" I thought it was yet one more layer of abstraction on top of Kubernetes.

#55Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yes, I read the code. I am not sure that you want to call it an OS per se, since kubernetes itself is the OS (manage memory, schedule processes, etc). So there is no default CAPI provider?
We have our provider here: https://github.com/talos-systems/cluster-api-provider-talos Perhaps OS isn't the right thing to call, but I don't know a better alternative :D

#56Hey folks, Talos creator here. Happy to answer any questions you guys may have. Sounds like some confusion about exactly what Talos is. A lot of good feedback here that we will take and improve our documentation. Talos is a Linux distribution built specifically for Kubernetes. The short version is that we have stripped out absolutely everything that is not required to make a machine a Kubernetes node, including SSH a…

Looks great: I run a compute cluster (30 bare metal nodes) and I can barely keep the OS patched. I've been looking to switch to a k8s setup, running out of a RO NFS root (booted with PXE). This looks like an even more promising choice.

Kubernetes is already an OS.
