I am currently trying to run a kubernetes through docker instance following those instructions: http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/docker/

When running it I encounter the following error:

Ok, it seems that the application is trying to contact the apiserver. After looking at the hyperkube executable it looks like there is a apiserver service which can be run, trying to start it manually, it now asks for a running etcd instance. I continue digging the documentation and found that an older version of the documentation was asking to have a an etcd up and running:

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/v1.0.6/docs/getting-started-guides/docker.md

At this point I am asking myself is there any issue with my config or with the documentation ? Does someone have been able to run kubernetes following this documentation ? Am I missing something here ?
