Lima is a new and better option for this, it does not use a bundled Ruby runtime and does not use anything from Oracle. Just Go and QEMU... See https://github.com/lima-vm/lima

Vagrant was a workaround, before the new project got off the ground: https://boot2podman.github.io/2020/07/22/machine-replacement...

Any virtualization solution could be used, with some more typing (like running the shell commands directly). It's not unique to Vagrant.

Yes, Red Hat reused the name - similar to the CoreOS name.

See https://boot2podman.github.io/2020/07/05/boot2docker-depreca... for the reasons why Vagrant was/is a workaround, after docker-machine and podman-machine stopped working.

Minikube is more similar to Docker Toolbox, which is not too surprising - considering they are built on the same Docker Machine.

Which Docker Inc. doesn't want to support anymore, saying that it was replaced with Docker Desktop and is now deprecated (since 2019).

minikube now includes a command called "minikube image build", which builds the images for your Kubernetes cluster - for any container runtime, including docker - but also containerd

I updated the README based on feedback from here...

Once there is any documentation or blog post for the new podman machine feature, I will link directly to it

The comments were regarding two different projects, one is deprecated (old podman-machine) one is not (new podman machine)

It's a "work in progress", basically an updated version of the old projects that serve like a proof-of-concept if you can tolerate the old versions (docker 19.03 and podman 1.9.3) The runs from RAM is an integral part of the project, the new version will have better packaging - using squashfs mounts rather than copying them over to tmpfs like the old one did.

I added some clarification (hopefully) to the README, it gets a bit confusing when terms like "Machine" and "CoreOS" get reused

Then you will be glad to hear that I was planning to continue the podman-machine project, but under a different name... https://boot2podman.github.io/2021/01/24/reboot-new-project....

I will "unlock" the deprecated boot2podman projects and add some more text about it to the README.
