+# The user-provided FlexVolume driver(s) must be under /flexvolume of the image filesystem.
+# For example, the driver k8s/nfs must be located at /flexvolume/k8s~nfs/nfs .
+#
+# This script should be used on a clean instance, with no FlexVolume installed.
+# Should not be run on instances with an existing full or partial installation.
+# Upon failure, the script will clean up the partial installation automatically.
+#
+# Must be executed under /home/kubernetes/bin with sudo.
+# Warning: kubelet will be restarted upon successful execution.
