There was a problem hiding this comment.
Good catch 👍
This needs to be more highlighted.
Many users (including myself) skip reading the text and only copy & paste the commands.

Overview
This PR provides some information necessary for Windows users to be able to successfully run a persistent docker node. NTFS does not support linux style permissions so when a docker node is started the first time it creates the desired files to store the node, but afterwards will refuse to run indicating that the file containing the keys has permissions of 777 instead of 600. In order to avoid these issues it is recommended that Windows users install and run WSL and then run the docker container with the celestia node storage mounted within the WSL filesystem which obviously supports linux permissions.
