Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. In the 'Check VM requirements' section, Windows VM support is mentioned before Linux VM support, and Windows update instructions are provided explicitly, while Linux users are referred to generic distributor guidance without concrete steps or examples. No Linux-specific commands, tools, or troubleshooting steps are provided, and the documentation lacks parity in actionable guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux VM support information in parallel, or alternate the order to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Provide explicit Linux update instructions, including example commands for popular distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) to update certificates and CRLs.
  • Include troubleshooting steps or common issues for Linux VMs, similar to what is provided for Windows.
  • Ensure that any references to OS-specific requirements or actions are equally detailed for both Windows and Linux.
  • Add example scripts or commands for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash/CLI) where relevant.
