 ## Initial setup
 
 The following environment variables will be needed throughout this guide:
 
-- `ROOT_NAMESPACE`: the namespace at the root of the Korifi org and space hierarchy. The default value is `cf`.
-- `KORIFI_NAMESPACE`: the namespace in which Korifi will be installed.
-- `ADMIN_USERNAME`: the name of the Kubernetes user who will have CF admin privileges on the Korifi installation. For security reasons, you should choose or create a user that is different from your cluster admin user. To provision new users, follow the user management instructions specific for your cluster's [authentication configuration](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/authentication/) or create a [new (short-lived) client certificate for user authentication](https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/access-authn-authz/certificate-signing-requests/#normal-user).
-- `BASE_DOMAIN`: the base domain used by both the Korifi API and, by default, all apps running on Korifi.

 ### Free Dockerhub accounts
 
 DockerHub allows only one private repository per free account. In case the DockerHub account you configure Korifi with has the `private` [default repository privacy](https://hub.docker.com/settings/default-privacy) enabled, then Korifi would only be able to create a single repository and would get `UNAUTHORIZED: authentication required` error when trying to push to a subsequent repository. This could either cause build errors during `cf push`, or the Kpack cluster builder may never become ready. Therefore you should either set the default repository privacy to `public`, or upgrade your DockerHub subscription plan. As of today, the `Pro` subscription plan provides unlimited private repositories.

+### TLS certificates
+
+Self-signed TLS certificates are generated automatically by the installation if `global.generateIngressCertificates` has been set to `true`.
+
+If you want to generate certificates yourself, you should not set the `global.generateIngressCertificates` value, and instead provide your certificates to Korifi by creating two TLS secrets in `$KORIFI_NAMESPACE`:
+
+1. `korifi-api-ingress-cert`;
+1. `korifi-workloads-ingress-cert`.
+
+### Container registry Certificate Authority
+
+Korifi can be configured to use a custom Certificate Authority when contacting the container registry. To do so, first create a `Secret` containing the CA certificate:
+
+```sh
+kubectl --namespace "$KORIFI_NAMESPACE" create secret generic <registry-ca-secret-name> \
+    --from-file=ca.crt=</path/to/ca-certificate>
+```
+
+You can then specify the `<registry-ca-secret-name>` using the `global.containerRegistryCACertSecret`.
+
+> **Warning**
+> Kpack does not support self-signed/internal CA configuration out of the box (see [pivotal/kpack#207](https://github.com/pivotal/kpack/issues/207)).
+> In order to make Kpack trust your CA certificate, you will have to inject it in both the Kpack controller and the Kpack build pods.
+> * The [`kpack-controller` `Deployment`](https://github.com/pivotal/kpack/blob/main/config/controller.yaml) can be modified to mount a `Secret` similar to the one created above: see the [Korifi API `Deployment`](https://github.com/cloudfoundry/korifi/blob/registry-ca/helm/api/templates/deployment.yaml) for an example of how to do this.
+> * For the build pods you can use the [cert-injection-webhook](https://github.com/vmware-tanzu/cert-injection-webhook), configured on the `kpack.io/build` label.

 The chart provides various other values that can be set. See [`README.helm.md`](./README.helm.md) for details.
 
 ### Configure an Authentication Proxy (optional)
 
 If you are using an authentication proxy with your cluster to enable SSO, you must set the following chart values:
 
-- `api.authProxy.host`: IP address of your cluster's auth proxy;
-- `api.authProxy.caCert`: CA certificate of your cluster's auth proxy.
+-   `api.authProxy.host`: IP address of your cluster's auth proxy;
+-   `api.authProxy.caCert`: CA certificate of your cluster's auth proxy.
 
 ## Post-install Configuration
 
-### TLS certificates
-
-Self-signed TLS certificates are generated automatically by the installation if `global.generateIngressCertificates` has been set to `true`.
-
-If you want to generate certificates yourself, you should not set the `global.generateIngressCertificates` value, and instead provide your certificates to Korifi by creating two TLS secrets in `$KORIFI_NAMESPACE`:
-
-1. `korifi-api-ingress-cert`;
-1. `korifi-workloads-ingress-cert`.
-
 ### DNS
 
 Create DNS entries for the Korifi API and for the apps running on Korifi. They should match the Helm values used to [deploy Korifi](#deploy-korifi):
 
-- The Korifi API entry should match the `api.apiServer.url` value. In our example, that would be `api.korifi.example.org`.
-- The apps entry should be a wildcard matching the `global.defaultAppDomainName` value. In our example, `*.apps.korifi.example.org`.
+-   The Korifi API entry should match the `api.apiServer.url` value. In our example, that would be `api.korifi.example.org`.
+-   The apps entry should be a wildcard matching the `global.defaultAppDomainName` value. In our example, `*.apps.korifi.example.org`.
 
 The DNS entries should point to the load balancer endpoint created by Contour when installed. To discover your endpoint, run:
