First of all, thank you for this tutorial!

I started to follow with the first video, but when i got to the step minikube service hello-k8s the browser page opens with an error message This site can’t be reached.

When I did kubectl get pods :

NAME                         READY   STATUS             RESTARTS   AGE
hello-k8s-75d8c7c996-c4c46   0/1     ImagePullBackOff   0          22s

$ kubectl logs hello-k8s-75d8c7c996-c4c46
Error from server (BadRequest): container "kube101" in pod "hello-k8s-75d8c7c996-c4c46" is waiting to start: trying and failing to pull image

When i did kubectl describe pod hello-k8s-75d8c7c996-c4c46:

Any idea on where I should start looking ?

PS: Doing a basic docker pull geerlingguy/kube101:intro from my machine works as expected.

It looks like a networking issue here:

Get https://registry-1.docker.io/v2/: dial tcp: lookup registry-1.docker.io on 192.168.64.1:53: read udp 192.168.64.4:47285->192.168.64.1:53: read: connection refused

@geerlingguy Thanks for the hint!

For future reference, this https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/issues/4589#issuecomment-614631444 solved it for me. It was a DNS issue.
