+openrc on Alpine Linux
+-------
+
+In order to pre-setup Alpine Linux you have to go through the following steps:
+
+```bash
+echo "cgroup /sys/fs/cgroup cgroup defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
+
+cat >> /etc/cgconfig.conf <<EOF
+mount {
+cpuacct = /cgroup/cpuacct;
+memory = /cgroup/memory;
+devices = /cgroup/devices;
+freezer = /cgroup/freezer;
+net_cls = /cgroup/net_cls;
+blkio = /cgroup/blkio;
+cpuset = /cgroup/cpuset;
+cpu = /cgroup/cpu;
+}
+EOF
+```
+
+Then update **/etc/update-extlinux.conf** by adding:
+
+```
+default_kernel_opts="...  cgroup_enable=cpuset cgroup_memory=1 cgroup_enable=memory"
+```
+
+Than update the config and reboot
+
+```bash
+update-extlinux
+reboot
+```
+
+After rebooting:
+
+- download **k3s** to **/usr/local/bin/k3s**
+- create an openrc file in **/etc/init.d**
+
+For the server:
+
+```bash
+#!/sbin/openrc-run
+
+command=/usr/local/bin/k3s
+command_args="server"
+pidfile=
+
+name="k3s"
+description="Lightweight Kubernetes"
+```
+
+For the agent:
+
+```bash
+#!/sbin/openrc-run

+# Build a Kubernetes cluster using k3s via Ansible.
+
+## K3s Ansible Playbook
+
+Build a Kubernetes cluster using Ansible with k3s. The goal is easily install a Kubernetes cluster on machines running:
+
+- [X] Debian 
+- [ ] Ubuntu 
+- [ ] CentOS 
+
+on processor architecture:
+
+- [X] x64
+- [X] arm64
+- [X] armhf
+
+## System requirements:
+
+Deployment environment must have Ansible 2.4.0+
+Master and nodes must have passwordless SSH access
+
+## Usage
+
+Add the system information gathered above into a file called hosts.ini. For example:
+
+```
+[master]
+192.16.35.12
+
+[node]
+192.16.35.[10:11]
+
+[kube-cluster:children]
+master
+node
+```
+
+Start provisioning of the cluster using the following command:
+
+```
+ansible-playbook site.yaml
+```
+
