Conversation
Linux servers couldn't run 'make reset-dev' cleanly: start-dev.sh launched port-forwards via macOS-only 'open -a Terminal.app'. Guard that behind an OS check and background the port-forwards on Linux (logged to port-forward.log). Add an official installer (scripts/install-ubuntu.sh) and an Ubuntu Server guide (docs/INSTALL_UBUNTU.md), adapted from the community writeup in #116, and link both from the README and docs/INSTALL.md. Align the README Python prerequisite with CI (3.9+). Closes #116

What
Makes OpenUBA install cleanly on a headless Ubuntu Server, which is the single most common friction point in our issues.
scripts/start-dev.shlaunched port-forwards with the macOS-onlyopen -a Terminal.app, which brokemake reset-devon Linux. It now detects the OS and, on Linux, runs the port-forwards in the background (logged toport-forward.log). macOS behavior is unchanged.scripts/install-ubuntu.sh— installs Docker/kubectl/Kind/Node, brings the cluster up, discovers service names, and wires reboot-safe systemd port-forwards (+ optional nginx proxy). Idempotent; configurable via env vars.docs/INSTALL_UBUNTU.md— architecture, remote access (SSH tunnel), default creds, and a known-issues table. Linked from the README anddocs/INSTALL.md.3.10+→3.9+) with the CI matrix anddocs/INSTALL.md.Credit
Adapted from the detailed community writeup in #116 by @rock0ne — the installer folds their script into the repo, and the guide preserves their known-issue/fix notes. It also resolves their #1 maintainer ask (guard the macOS-only terminal launch) at the source rather than patching it at install time.
Testing
bash -nclean on both scripts. The installer runs against a real server (not exercised in CI, which has no Kind-in-Docker host); thestart-dev.shOS guard is a pure branch with unchanged macOS behavior.Closes #116
