Windows First Powershell Heavy 🔧 Windows Tools Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation provides detailed, step-by-step instructions and screenshots for Windows servers, including PowerShell commands and Windows-specific tools (diskpart, registry editing, driver lists), with Windows examples and screenshots shown first. Linux instructions are present and reasonably detailed, but lack equivalent screenshots, and some Linux steps are described in a more generic way (e.g., 'consult your distribution's documentation'), with fewer concrete command examples. Windows tooling and patterns (PowerShell, diskpart) are highlighted, while Linux equivalents (e.g., systemctl, parted, etc.) are not mentioned or shown.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux command-line examples for key steps, such as checking DHCP service status, mounting partitions, and validating agent installation (e.g., using systemctl, lsblk, etc.).
  • Include screenshots or terminal output examples for Linux steps, similar to those provided for Windows.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel or in a more balanced way, rather than listing Windows first and in greater detail.
  • Reference Linux-specific troubleshooting articles and tools where appropriate.
  • Clarify any steps that require manual intervention for Linux users, and provide concrete commands or scripts where possible.
