## Overview
[HyperKit](https://github.com/moby/hyperkit) is an open-source hypervisor for macOS hypervisor, optimized for lightweight virtual machines and container deployment.
{{% readfile file="/docs/drivers/includes/hyperkit_usage.inc" %}}
## Special features
minikube start supports additional hyperkit specific flags:
* **`--hyperkit-vpnkit-sock`**: Location of the VPNKit socket used for networking. If empty, disables Hyperkit VPNKitSock, if 'auto' uses Docker for Mac VPNKit connection, otherwise uses the specified VSock
* **`--hyperkit-vsock-ports`**: List of guest VSock ports that should be exposed as sockets on the host
* **`--nfs-share`**: Local folders to share with Guest via NFS mounts
* **`--nfs-shares-root`**: Where to root the NFS Shares (default "/nfsshares")
* **`--uuid`**: Provide VM UUID to restore MAC address
## Issues
### Local DNS server conflict
If you are using `dnsmasq` and `minikube` fails, add `listen-address=192.168.64.1` to dnsmasq.conf.
If you are running other DNS servers, shut them off or specify an alternative bind address.

* Run `minikube start --alsologtostderr -v=7` to debug crashes
