 You can verify that the OLM components have been successfully deployed by running `kubectl -n local get deployments`
 
-## Run locally with minishift
-
-This command starts minishift, builds the OLM containers locally with the minishift-provided docker, and uses the local configuration in [local-values-shift.yaml](local-values-shift.yaml) to build localized deployment resources for OLM.
-
-Note that this step requires the `helm` binary, which doesn't come with minishift by default, to be present in your PATH. It can be downloaded from the [helm releases page](https://github.com/helm/helm/releases)
