I haven't played with it yet, no, but I work close to the bottom of the stack (in the nitty gritty bits of virtualization stuff); modern Linux kernels all look more or less the same from way down here :) We do provide public images for CoreOS on GCE, though, and I think there are some public blog posts on getting it up and going with Kubernetes (if you wanted to go that route). From the Core OS folks: CoreOS on GCE: https://coreos.com/docs/running-coreos/cloud-providers/google-compute-engine/ https://coreos.com/docs/running-coreos/cloud-providers/googl... And Kubernetes + CoreOS (not GCE specific): https://coreos.com/blog/running-kubernetes-example-on-CoreOS-part-1/ https://coreos.com/blog/running-kubernetes-example-on-CoreOS... https://coreos.com/blog/running-kubernetes-example-on-CoreOS-part-2/ https://coreos.com/blog/running-kubernetes-example-on-CoreOS... Hope the helps get you going if you're looking to give things a go. If you do run into issues I'll probably forward you along to our containers folks who are much better informed about that end of the stack than I am.
