Clean up broken links and fix commands in "Getting started locally"

Update required versions, fix a bunch of broken links, and generally normalize the way shell commands are referred to. In addition, stop assuming that anybody has `.` in their `$PATH` in recommended shell commands.

Note that I recorded many of these issues in a friction log (https://docs.google.com/document/d/18741pdPn74ykHODEcX11fS21rU3GpJM30yBbcP1akUk/edit?usp=sharing).

### Requirements
## Requirements
#### Linux
### Linux
Not running Linux? Consider running [Minikube](http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/), or on a cloud provider like [Google Compute Engine](https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/gce/).
Not running Linux? Consider running [Minikube](https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/learning-environment/minikube/), or on a cloud provider like [Google Compute Engine](https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/turnkey/gce/).
#### Docker
### Docker
At least [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/installation/#installation)
1.10+. Ensure the Docker daemon is running and can be contacted (try `docker
ps`). Some of the Kubernetes components need to run as root, which normally
works fine with docker.
You will need [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) installed, at least version 17.03. Check the [Kubernetes release notes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/release/notes/) for information about supported Docker versions.
#### etcd
Ensure the Docker daemon is running and can be contacted with `docker ps`. Some of the Kubernetes components need to run as root, which normally works fine with docker.
You need an [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/releases) in your path, please make sure it is installed and in your ``$PATH``.
### etcd
#### go
You need [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/releases) installed and in your `$PATH`. [Check here](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/devel/development.md#install-etcd) for instructions on installing a local copy.
You need [go](https://golang.org/doc/install) in your path (see [here](development.md#go-versions) for supported versions), please make sure it is installed and in your ``$PATH``.
### go
#### OpenSSL
You need [go](https://golang.org/doc/install) in your path (see [Development Guide](development.md#go) for supported versions), please make sure it is installed and in your ``$PATH``.
### OpenSSL
You need [OpenSSL](https://www.openssl.org/) installed. If you do not have the `openssl` command available, the script will print an appropriate error.
#### CFSSL
### CFSSL
The [CFSSL](https://cfssl.org/) binaries (cfssl, cfssljson) must be installed and available on your ``$PATH``.
The easiest way to get it is something similar to the following:
The easiest way to get it is to run these shell commands:
```
$ go get -u github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/cmd/...
$ PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
```sh
go get -u github.com/cloudflare/cfssl/cmd/...
PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
```
### Clone the repository
## Clone the repository
In order to run kubernetes you must have the kubernetes code on the local machine. Cloning this repository is sufficient.
```$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.git```
```sh
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.git
```
The `--depth=1` parameter is optional and will ensure a smaller download.
### Starting the cluster
## Starting the cluster
In a separate tab of your terminal, run the following (since one needs sudo access to start/stop Kubernetes daemons, it is easier to run the entire script as root):
In a separate tab of your terminal, run the following:
```sh
cd kubernetes
hack/local-up-cluster.sh
./hack/local-up-cluster.sh
```
This will build and start a lightweight local cluster, consisting of a master
and a single node. Type Control-C to shut it down.
Since root access is sometimes needed to start/stop Kubernetes daemons, `./hack/local-up-cluster.sh` may need to be run as root. If it reports failures, try this instead:
If you've already compiled the Kubernetes components, then you can avoid rebuilding them with this script by using the `-O` flag.
```sh
sudo ./hack/local-up-cluster.sh
```

You can use the `./cluster/kubectl.sh` script to interact with the local cluster. `./hack/local-up-cluster.sh` will

### Running a container
## Running a container
Your cluster is running, and you want to start running containers!
You can now use any of the cluster/kubectl.sh commands to interact with your local setup.
```sh
cluster/kubectl.sh get pods
cluster/kubectl.sh get services
cluster/kubectl.sh get replicationcontrollers
cluster/kubectl.sh run my-nginx --image=nginx --port=80
## begin wait for provision to complete, you can monitor the docker pull by opening a new terminal
sudo docker images
## you should see it pulling the nginx image, once the above command returns it
sudo docker ps
## you should see your container running!
exit
## end wait
## introspect Kubernetes!
cluster/kubectl.sh get pods
cluster/kubectl.sh get services
cluster/kubectl.sh get replicationcontrollers
./cluster/kubectl.sh get pods
./cluster/kubectl.sh get services
./cluster/kubectl.sh get replicationcontrollers
./cluster/kubectl.sh run my-nginx --image=nginx --port=80
```
While waiting for the provisioning to complete, you can monitor progress in another terminal with these commands.
### Running a user defined pod
```sh
docker images
# To watch the process pull the nginx image
docker ps
# To watch all Docker processes.
```
Once provisioning is complete, you can use the following commands for Kubernetes introspection.
```sh
./cluster/kubectl.sh get pods
./cluster/kubectl.sh get services
./cluster/kubectl.sh get replicationcontrollers
```
## Running a user defined pod
Note the difference between a [container](https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/containers/)
and a [pod](https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/pods/). Since you only asked for the former, Kubernetes will create a wrapper pod for you.
However you cannot view the nginx start page on localhost. To verify that nginx is running you need to run `curl` within the docker container (try `docker exec`).
However, you cannot view the nginx start page on localhost. To verify that nginx is running, you need to run `curl` within the Docker container (try `docker exec`).
You can control the specifications of a pod via a user defined manifest, and reach nginx through your browser on the port specified therein:
```sh
cluster/kubectl.sh create -f test/fixtures/doc-yaml/user-guide/pod.yaml
./cluster/kubectl.sh create -f test/fixtures/doc-yaml/user-guide/pod.yaml
```
Congratulations!

### I cannot create a replication controller with replica size greater than 1! What gives?
You are running a single node setup. This has the limitation of only supporting a single replica of a given pod. If you are interested in running with larger replica sizes, we encourage you to try the local vagrant setup or one of the cloud providers.
