On a virtualbox NAT. Won't have internet access

• Fails gemini boot on pypy tar download
• Test: wget www.google.com, if this works, gemini will work

Workaround:

• Let one machine boot at a time, restart other machines one at a time so they can boot

Problem:
PXE Boot will only work for one machine at a time.

• Other machines must fail and restart
• Fail on pulling the vmlinuz file

Workaround:

• Change the node name in the cluster.sh script.

Problem:

• Only occurs some times when old machines are not cleaned up properly.
• Have to go and manually delete the .vbox at that location

• nodes require 2GBs of RAM to work with a simple web app on K8s
• with 1.75GB gemini will complete its install, but paging errors arise when I tried starting a simple web app. https://gist.github.com/danehans/cb744bd10084175ccc44
• With 1.5GB of RAM. Gemini will fail during its install, probably on download / extraction of a tar.
