Prep

Is suggested to have and verify SSH access into your Workspace in case of trouble. Otherwise a workspace rebuild might be needed, which takes time and runs the risk of losing data in your root and home volumes that changed since last AWS-initiated backup.

Note one nuance of ssh into a workspace - will need leading domain name prefix such as mydomain\myusername.

Install i3
