 ## Installation
-### OSX
-\`\`\`shell
-curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/${TAGNAME}/minikube-darwin-amd64 && chmod +x minikube && sudo cp minikube /usr/local/bin/ && rm minikube
-\`\`\`
-Feel free to leave off \`\`\`sudo cp minikube /usr/local/bin/ && rm minikube\`\`\` if you would like to add minikube to your path manually.
 
-Or you can install via homebrew with \`brew cask install minikube\`.
+See [https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/](Getting Started)
 
-### Linux
-\`\`\`shell
-curl -Lo minikube https://storage.googleapis.com/minikube/releases/${TAGNAME}/minikube-linux-amd64 && chmod +x minikube && sudo cp minikube /usr/local/bin/ && rm minikube

-Feel free to leave off \`\`\`sudo cp minikube /usr/local/bin/ && rm minikube\`\`\` if you would like to add minikube to your path manually.
+## ISO Checksum
 
-### Debian Package (.deb) [Experimental]
-Download the \`minikube_${DEB_VERSION}.deb\` file, and install it using \`sudo dpkg -i minikube_${DEB_VERSION}.deb\`
+\`${ISO_SHA256}\`"
 
-### RPM Package (.rpm) [Experimental]
-Download the \`minikube-${RPM_VERSION}.rpm\` file, and install it using \`sudo rpm -i minikube-${RPM_VERSION}.rpm\`
-
-### Windows [Experimental]
-Download the \`minikube-windows-amd64.exe\` file, rename it to \`minikube.exe\` and add it to your path.
-
-### Windows Installer [Experimental]
-Download the \`minikube-installer.exe\` file, and execute the installer.  This will automatically add minikube.exe to your path with an uninstaller available as well.
-
-## Usage
-Documentation is available [here](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/${TAGNAME}/README.md).
-
-## Checksums
-Minikube consists of a binary executable and a VM image in ISO format. To verify the contents of your distribution, you can compare sha256 hashes with these values:
-
-\`\`\`
-$ tail -n +1 -- out/*.sha256
-==> out/minikube-darwin-amd64.sha256 <==
-${DARWIN_SHA256}
-
-==> out/minikube-linux-amd64.sha256 <==
-${LINUX_SHA256}
-
-==> out/minikube-windows-amd64.exe.sha256 <==
-${WINDOWS_SHA256}
-\`\`\`
-
-### ISO
-\`\`\`shell
-$ openssl sha256 minikube.iso
-SHA256(minikube.iso)=
-${ISO_SHA256}
