Description
The [initialisation section for Kubo](https://docs.ipfs.tech/how-to/command-line-quick-start/#initialize-the-repository) suggests running:
```bash
ipfs cat /ipfs/QmYwAPJzv5CZsnA625s3Xf2nemtYgPpHdWEz79ojWnPbdG/quick-start
```
However this returned
```bash
Error: block was not found locally (offline): ipld: could not find QmYwAPJzv5CZsnA625s3Xf2nemtYgPpHdWEz79ojWnPbdG
```
It was not until I started the `ipfs daemon` that I was able to successfully `cat` the file. The next section then talks about "taking your node online" and running the daemon, it seems the instructions are in the wrong order, or have I done something incorrect?
