Unable to get gk-deploy-minikube to work

I am using https://github.com/gluster/gluster-kubernetes/blob/master/deploy/gk-deploy-minikube within a minikube 1.0.0 on windows (amd64) deployment via a git-bash command line to get bash support. It appears to have multiple problems.

Created using a default installation minikube start --cpus 2 --memory 8196

crashes out with

./gk-deploy-minikube
+ minikube ssh '        sudo truncate -s 10G /mnt/vda1/heketi-bricks.img        && sudo losetup /dev/loop1 /mnt/vda1/heketi-bricks.img  && sudo pvcreate /dev/loop1 '
truncate: cannot open '/mnt/vda1/heketi-bricks.img' for writing: No such file or directory
ssh: Process exited with status 1

can resolve this using

minikube ssh 'sudo mkdir -p /mnt/vda1'

crashes out with

$ ./gk-deploy-minikube
+ minikube ssh '        sudo truncate -s 10G /mnt/vda1/heketi-bricks.img        && sudo losetup /dev/loop1 /mnt/vda1/heketi-bricks.img  && sudo pvcreate /dev/loop1 '

I can fix this by changing https://github.com/gluster/gluster-kubernetes/blob/master/deploy/gk-deploy-minikube#L29 from ${SCRIPT_DIR}/gk-deploy --yes --single-node --cli ${CLI} --deploy-gluster ${SCRIPT_DIR}/${TOPOLOGY} to ${SCRIPT_DIR}/gk-deploy --yes --single-node --cli ${CLI} --deploy-gluster ./${TOPOLOGY}

Timeout Waiting for GlusterFS pods to start ...

Seems that the service has failed to start within the pod

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

I am trying to try out the CSI functionality, but need a base to start from.
