Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by presenting Windows-specific instructions, screenshots, and PowerShell examples before Linux equivalents. Windows tools (e.g., diskpart, PowerShell, Task Manager) are described in detail, while Linux instructions are less visual and lack parity in example depth. Linux steps are often generic, with fewer illustrative commands and no screenshots, making the Windows experience more accessible and complete.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux command-line examples for each manual step, similar to the PowerShell examples given for Windows (e.g., checking DHCP service status, verifying agent installation).
  • Include screenshots or terminal outputs for key Linux steps (e.g., mounting partitions, rebuilding initrd, checking waagent status), matching the visual guidance given for Windows.
  • List Linux instructions before or alongside Windows instructions to avoid 'windows_first' ordering bias.
  • Reference Linux-specific documentation and troubleshooting articles as prominently as Windows ones.
  • Expand on Linux tool usage (e.g., systemctl, lsblk, grub configuration) with concrete examples and step-by-step guidance.
  • Ensure parity in detail and clarity between Windows and Linux sections, especially for manual preparation steps.
