Hi @programingnotes,

The steps and errors reported in this issue do not reflect the state of this repository (this fork is progressing towards becoming an official provider and has taken substantial deviations from the original btobolaski repo and the LinodeContent fork).

This repository is a work-in-progress, with two fairly large open issues that will bring further changes to the linode_instance resource (note that your code above references the linode_linode resource which no longer exists in this project).

You can try this repo out, none the less, using the instructions provided here:

https://github.com/displague/terraform-provider-linode#building-the-provider

Examples are provided here:
