Wiki and overall documentation are still lacking. As a starting point for acronym/glossary see: Acronyms and Terms

Also list any drives that are known/thought/expected to possibly require a PSID revert to use (Micron, Samsung) and the issues with Windows taking crypto ownership for BitLocker/eDrive (and ways to work around that, and the fact that it will show up on clean UEFI+GPT installs if the last install to same hardware was MBR+Legacy Boot)

Also document "oolies" like issue #164 with how UEFI boot paths get managed/deleted both by OS and by BIOS, and may cause things to not work following a GRUB update (which is really a re-install) and the workarounds.
