Install Docker Engine

for pkg in docker.io docker-doc docker-compose podman-docker containerd runc; do sudo apt-get remove $pkg; done

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl gnupg

sudo install -m 0755 -d /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/debian/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg
sudo chmod a+r /etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg

echo \
  "deb [arch="$(dpkg --print-architecture)" signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/docker.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/debian \
  "$(. /etc/os-release && echo "$VERSION_CODENAME")" stable" | \
  sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin

Install cri-dockerd:

apt-get install git

git clone https://github.com/Mirantis/cri-dockerd.git

cd cri-dockerd

apt-get install make
sudo apt install golang-go
sudo apt install gcc

make cri-dockerd

mkdir -p /usr/local/bin
install -o root -g root -m 0755 cri-dockerd /usr/local/bin/cri-dockerd
install packaging/systemd/* /etc/systemd/system
sed -i -e 's,/usr/bin/cri-dockerd,/usr/local/bin/cri-dockerd,' /etc/systemd/system/cri-docker.service
systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable cri-docker.service
systemctl enable --now cri-docker.socket

reboot

Installing kubeadm

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl

curl -fsSL https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /etc/apt/keyrings/kubernetes-archive-keyring.gpg

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/kubernetes-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y kubelet kubeadm kubectl
sudo apt-mark hold kubelet kubeadm kubectl

Creating cluster

kubeadm init --pod-network-cidr=192.168.0.0/16 --cri-socket=unix:///var/run/cri-dockerd.sock

## For user
mkdir -p $HOME/.kube
sudo cp -i /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf $HOME/.kube/config
sudo chown $(id -u):$(id -g) $HOME/.kube/config

## For root
export KUBECONFIG=/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf

# Install Calico
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcalico/calico/v3.26.0/manifests/tigera-operator.yaml

#Calico resources
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/projectcalico/calico/v3.26.0/manifests/custom-resources.yaml

watch kubectl get pods -n calico-system

kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane-
kubectl taint nodes --all node-role.kubernetes.io/master-

Install MetalLB

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metallb/metallb/v0.13.10/config/manifests/metallb-native.yaml

Add address pool for MetalLB

Change your correct IP pull with flat IPs.
