Google Container-VM Image: A Container-Optimized OS Image Based on Chromium OS

This is the image that the instances in a Google Container Engine cluster run. Nice that its getting easier and easier to run a local cluster - for most things it doesn't matter but every so often I'd like to test things in a kube configuration locally before deploying to staging/production.

Edit: at least I'm assuming these are the same images as what they run GKE with due to the same name - can anyone confirm this?

As of today, GKE uses the Debian-based ContainerVM: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/containers/container_v...

I believe those images are used to run a 1-node kubernetes cluster, but are not the same as those used by GKE.
