Research direction

Start with the supplied Docker Compose configuration and startup log, reproducing the failure on Windows 11 with WSL2, the dockurr/macos image, and the shown disk settings. Trace the disk initialization path that produces the RAW.SCSI.SSD error; done means determining whether this configuration is supported and documenting or correcting the failure with a verified result.
