You didn't give more details, but there are some concerns that I solved few days ago about minikube issues with kubernetes 1.12.

Indeed, the compatibility matrix between kubernetes and docker recommends to run :
Docker 18.06 + kubernetes 1.12 (Docker 18.09 is not supported now).

Thus, make sure docker version is NOT above 18.06. Then, run the following:

# clean up

minikube delete



minikube start --vm-driver="none"

kubectl get nodes

If you are still encountering issues, please give more details, namely minikube logs.
