Capture notes

• Voice transcript: “I need to remember to get DAV to deploy a Linux operating system on the MacBook Air.”
• Interpreted “DAV” as likely “Dab”; capture as a Dab/Mac hardware setup task to clarify before execution.
• Ananth clarified desired install mode: dual-boot, not VM/live-only.
• Ananth granted permission to erase/repartition if required, but this should still be treated as destructive and preceded by explicit final confirmation at execution time.
• Primary use-case: deploy agents/harnesses on the Mac.
• Definition of done: Linux dual-boot working, hardware support verified, dev tools installed, and Hermes/SSH access configured.
• Tailscale shows two MacBook Air nodes: ananth-macbook-air active but SSH refused, and am10s-macbook-air reachable but SSH key auth not yet granted.
• Sensitive Wi-Fi credential was provided in WhatsApp and intentionally not copied into Notice Board source files.

Intent: Dual-boot Linux on the MacBook Air for running agents/harnesses, with full dev tooling and remote access configured.

Next action: Deferred until Ananth has time and someone can be physically present for dual-boot boot/recovery/USB steps.

Outcome

Marked done by Ananth via WhatsApp cleanup batch.
