An error occurred with the instance when trying to launch with 'multipass': returned exit code 2.
Ensure that 'multipass' is setup correctly and try again.

In the multipass client there is a microk8s image but every option is disabled in the client so using the terminal I deleted the image and purged multipass. I then tried the 'microk8s install' command again and the same errors

Hey @deanchalk,

Have you tried launching a simple ubuntu vm through multipass? Is this only related to microk8s installer?

You are onto something - I cant install any of the suggested VMs - I tried installing jammy jellyfish and it failed in the same way with a timeout message
