For initial setup then I am good with the
set profile
set config
add-on apply

But for subsequent restarts, running that same sequence yields lots of
messages that look bad to the end-user.

So on restarts I am using
minishift —profile whatever start

The big win on profiles is the ability to start them and stop them often,
on the fly, in front of a live audience. Plus, it is best to stop when
putting the laptop to sleep to avoid the df cpu problem.

Does a subsequent start also get the clock in the VM corrected ?
