<p>Hi do you know why I get the following error:</p>

<pre><code>  ~ minikube start --vm-driver kvm2             
😄  minikube v1.0.0 on darwin (amd64)
🤹  Downloading Kubernetes v1.14.0 images in the background ...
🔥  Creating kvm2 VM (CPUs=2, Memory=2048MB, Disk=20000MB) ...
💡  unsupported driver: kvm2
</code></pre>

<p>I have installed: </p>

<pre><code>brew update &amp;&amp; brew install kubernetes-cli &amp;&amp; brew cask install docker docker-machine minikube virtualbox &amp;&amp; brew install hyperkit
</code></pre>

<p>As per <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md#driver-plugin-installation" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Minikube Driver Plugin Installation</a>:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Minikube uses Docker Machine to manage the Kubernetes VM so it
  benefits from the driver plugin architecture that Docker Machine uses
  to provide a consistent way to manage various VM providers. Minikube
  embeds VirtualBox and VMware Fusion drivers so there are no additional
  steps to use them. However, other drivers require an extra binary to
  be present in the host PATH.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>The KVM2 driver is maintained by the minikube team. It is built, tested and released with minikube, however, <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md#kvm2-driver" rel="nofollow noreferrer">it's <strong>not supported by MacOS</strong></a>.  </p>

<p><em>(I'm assuming that you are using MacOS since you are managing your packages with <code>brew</code>).</em></p>

<p>Minikube supports the <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/minikube/#quickstart" rel="nofollow noreferrer">following drivers</a> (set with <code>--vm-driver=xxxxx</code>; default is <code>virtualbox</code>):</p>

<blockquote>
  <ul>
  <li>virtualbox</li>
  <li>vmwarefusion</li>
  <li>kvm2</li>
  <li>kvm</li>
  <li>hyperkit</li>
  <li>xhyve (deprecated)</li>
  <li>hyperv</li>
  <li>none (Runs the Kubernetes components on the host and not in a VM. Using this driver requires Docker and a Linux environment</li>
  </ul>
</blockquote>

<p>From this list, the best suitable drivers to use with MacOS are:</p>

<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Virtual Box</a></li>
<li><a href="https://www.vmware.com/products/fusion.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">VMware Fusion</a></li>
<li><em>and maybe the <a href="https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md#hyperkit-driver" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Hyperkit driver</a></em></li>
</ul>
