@AxelTheGerman How does this look? I tried to simplify the steps by using sudo echo >/sudo echo >> rather than sudo tee/sudo tee -a.

I'm going to merge now. Happy to get any feedback later.

The new instructions don't work. sudo does not apply to the redirection.

$ sudo echo fs.inotify.max_user_watches=524288 >> /etc/sysctl.conf
bash: /etc/sysctl.conf: Permission denied
