I'm installing jupyterhub on k8s using helm.

helm upgrade --cleanup-on-fail --install jupyterhub jupyterhub-2.0.0/jupyterhub/ --namespace my-NS --create-namespace --version=2.0.0 --values my-values.yaml --timeout 30m --debug

Its failing with error in creating hook-image-awaiter pods.
Error from helm debug:

There are some answers in web which didn't help to resolve the issue. I have tried following,

• Increase helm install time out - didn't work
• Failed to pull image: I can see jupyterhub/k8s-image-awaiter:2.0.0 got pulled and I do not see any errors when pods are described

hook-image-puller:

hook-image-awaiter:

PS: I disabled rbac in values.yaml (create=false) and am installing jupyterhub in a new namespace while there is one is running in another namespace)
