Longhorn Kubernetes Installation

I want to install Longhorn in my Kubernetes cluster but I am unsure about the prerequisites, supported environments, and deployment methods.

The installation documentation references Helm charts and manifests, so I need clarification about the recommended way to deploy Longhorn.

I also need troubleshooting help for failed Longhorn installations, missing components, and deployment errors after setup.

My Kubernetes cluster uses multiple worker nodes, so I want to understand how Longhorn configures storage services during installation.

The Longhorn UI is not appearing after deployment, so I need guidance for verifying whether all required components are running correctly.

I also want to know how installation differs between Kubernetes distributions such as K3s, RKE2, and managed cloud clusters.
