Hi @BeerOnBeard,

You need add sudo usermod -a -G docker $USER to avoid access permissions issues

Hi @jashk,

I did that on purpose following the Docker Post-install instructions warning. I wanted to leave that decision up to the user of this script to consciously decide if they wanted to take on that risk.

Hi @BeerOnBeard,

Agree.
