There is simply no such thing as upgrading from runv. kata is a fresh installation and it can even run together with runv without affecting each other. |

Hi @bergwolf - I thought that would be the case. Are you happy for this doc to land and then potentially for someone to raise a follow-on PR to update this doc explaining the runv approach? |
|
@jodh-intel yes, that's fine with me. I'll raise a PR to add the runv approach after this is landed. |
|
Great - thanks @bergwolf. |
|
@jodh-intel looks good - I'll be giving a try today to make sure it works in my clear-containers dev machine. |
|
Assuming someone (@jcvenegas ) tests/verifies, the text and plan looks great to me. |
