Will the new system still be able to schedule containers through the GUI with the same options as currently available on Cattle? I like Kubernetes but I much prefer having an easy way to change configuration via a GUI. Frankly I've found the existing Cattle scheduler far more pleasant to manage than Kubernetes, which feels like it requires a lot more time to manage effectively. Also the one feature I'd really love to see from Rancher is ARM support for the agent. Not fussed about running the server on ARM but it'd be immensely useful for me if the agent could be. EDIT: And is there a timeline for when a final version of 2.0 is expected? We're currently building our new deployment stack, and if 1.0 will be fazed out by the end of the year I'd rather start afresh now than later :)

  Awesome! And yeah I've found a few resources of people who've managed it. Last time I tried to compile it, it got stuck on some x86-specific dependencies in the base images you guys were using I think. A year later and I'm finally starting to look at it again. Official support would be fantastic if possible; I would very happily start using it on hundreds of devices in the near future :D

    I soon will be working on this as a contribution. Starting with RancherOS’s kernel through, and adding GPU support. Please include me in your comms.

        Typo: PPC, not ARM.
