+# Kubernetes Distribution Guide
+
+This document captures information about using Helm in specific Kubernetes
+environments.
+
+We are trying to add more details to this document. Please contribute via Pull
+Requests if you can.
+
+## MiniKube
+
+Helm is tested and known to work with [minikube](https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube).
+It requires no additional configuration.
+
+## `scripts/local-cluster` and Hyperkube
+
+Hyperkube configured via `scripts/local-cluster.sh` is known to work. For raw
+Hyperkube you may need to do some manual configuration.
+
+## GKE
+
+Google's GKE hosted Kubernetes platform is known to work with Helm, and requires
+no additional configuration.
+
+## Ubuntu with 'kubeadm'
+
+Kubernetes bootstrapped with `kubeadm` is known to work on the following Linux
+distributions:
+
+- Ubuntu 16.04
+- CAN SOMEONE CONFIRM ON FEDORA?
+
+Some versions of Helm (v2.0.0-beta2) require you to `export KUBECONFIG=/etc/kubernetes/admin.conf`
+or create a `~/.kube/config`.
+
+## CoreOS
+
+Some versions of CoreOS's Kubernetes do not ship with `socat`, which is what
+the Kubernetes API server uses to create tunnels. This will prevent Helm from
+being able to tunnel to Tiller.
