Maybe something like gdb --eval-command=run --args minikube start would help to get a proper backtrace.

You don't need to run minikube as root, and do make sure that you have enough memory in the machine.

I encountered the same issue just now. Based on my investigation, it was caused by a corrupted file due to a failed download. Simply redownloading and reinstalling should fix the problem. However, if you mistakenly executed the installation command after a failed download, be sure to delete the already installed files before trying again.

Success:

Failed downloads would not have the same checksum, so it is unfortunate that these aren't checked by default.

Also something like --fail would have helped, maybe wcurl can fix this in the future (which curl flags to use)?
