$ minikube config set rootless true

Rootless Podman driver needs minikube 1.26 (#13829)

[robshelly]

So you're saying rootless podman is not supported in v1.25.2? Can this be documented more clearly?

Currently the latest stable version of minikube is v1.25.2 which doesn't support rootless podman but the latest version to the docs suggests it is supported: https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/drivers/podman/

Hi @robshelly, minikube v1.26.0 is now the latest version of minikube and has support for rootless podman.

Please update to the latest version and thank you for sharing your experience.
