FAQ
What if I get stuck?
Return to the last verified checkpoint and redo the failing step slowly. If it still fails, search for the exact error or symptom rather than the general task.
How do I maintain the result?
Add the final maintenance step to a calendar. Ten minutes monthly prevents most regressions.
Do I need special equipment?
No. The lists above stick to essentials. Upgrade only after the basic version works and you know which limitation actually bothers you.
