Thanks a lot for your contribution! It looks good to me. There's only one missing thing: a changelog entry (as it will be included in the next set of releases).
You might find changelog entry examples in the following directory: https://github.com/flatcar-linux/coreos-overlay/tree/main/changelog/bugfixes

@tormath1 Thanks! :) |

@tormath1 Reason I'm asking is because, running flatcar on EKS using Cluster API doesn't work at all atm because:

@EhsanLunar that is correct. Once merged, this will be backported to current channels and available in the next releases. |

Description
When an EC2 instance boots up with a flatcar image (even the latest) the kubelet fails.
The userdata defines (and should do so) that the
/etc/eks/bootstrap.shshould run, which it does.This seems to add a ExecStartPre to the kubelet.service:
ExecStartPre=/usr/share/oem/eks/download-kubelet.shBoth the
bootstrap.shand thedownload-kubelet.share consistent with:https://github.com/flatcar-linux/coreos-overlay/blob/main/coreos-base/flatcar-eks/files/bootstrap.sh
https://github.com/flatcar-linux/coreos-overlay/blob/main/coreos-base/flatcar-eks/files/download-kubelet.sh
The
download-kubelet.shfails withUnsupported Kubernetes versionbecause in the case statement on line 24->50 (https://github.com/flatcar-linux/coreos-overlay/blob/main/coreos-base/flatcar-eks/files/download-kubelet.sh#L25) only has values for kubernetes version 1.15 -> 1.21If I manually alter the file and add 1.22 (when I test this on 1.22.9 kubernetes version deployment) and re-run the
bootsrap.shit works fine as far as I can see, the node than joins the cluster and shows up asReadyand pods starting running on the node.The last PR I can see on this particular thing was done about a year ago f0da7f8
Impact
No EKS support for kubernetes versions higher than 1.21
Environment and steps to reproduce
Expected behavior
Download locations for kubernetes versions 1.22 and 1.23 (EKS doesn't have support for 1.24 yet it seems) should be located inside the download-kubelet.sh
Additional information
By running
aws s3 ls s3://amazon-eks/you can list the available locations of the other versions, so for it should result in this:[Title: describe the change in one sentence]
