Scope

Fresh host bootstrapDocker installOpenVPN client accessDelivery baseline

The Docker installer targets Ubuntu 24.04.4 and warns rather than blocks on other versions. The VPN client source names 20.04/22.04/24.04. These code branches do not establish successful real-host tests.

Read-only preflight: cat /etc/os-release; ps -p 1 -o comm=; df -h. Review service restarts and credentials in the matching guide. Containers, WSL, custom init and unsupported release combinations are unverified.
