Closes N100 F1 (HIGH): cheap AMI (AN3PLUS 0.01-class) UEFI firmware can't
relocate the ISO's stock signed GRUB from USB (relocation 0x0). The run's live
grub-mkimage workaround is now a first-class pipeline mode.
- build-felhom-iso.sh: --loader shim|mkimage (default shim, byte-for-byte
unchanged; profile-settable FELHOM_LOADER; --loader wins). Loud banner +
manifest loader:/grub-mkimage: fields + -mkimage filename suffix.
- mkimage-surgery.sh (new): post-prepare-iso, in the assistant container. Builds
a monolithic grub-mkimage loader from the ISO's own GRUB (module set from its
grub.cfg; embedded search --fs-uuid -> configfile the real menu). Swaps it into
the ISO9660 tree (real lowercase path) + the efi.img ESP; xorriso re-master
preserves BIOS-hybrid + UEFI + GPT-ESP, drops only Apple HFS+/APM. Recipe from
the N100 run evidence, not re-derived.
- Dockerfile.assistant: grub-common + grub-efi-amd64-bin + mtools + dosfstools.
profiles/n100.profile (new, mkimage + SB-off note).
- Validated on nested VM 311 (RUNBOOK-B legs): leg1 shim boots+installs under
OVMF SB-enforcing + SeaBIOS; leg2 mkimage boots+installs under SB-off; leg3
(red-proof) mkimage under SB-enforcing FAILS Access Denied (unsigned -> SB must
be OFF); leg4 surgery byte-identical payload. bash -n + shellcheck clean.
Physical N100 closure folds into the rehearsal (n100-safety match-nothing ISO
built + sha-recorded, unbooted). PXE stays a deferred R-21 note.
F2 claim re-issue on clean-slate re-enroll (ReissueForReenroll, host-enroll mint path,
single-bump, reset code; hub never stores the password so fork B). F3 offsite re-issue on
re-enroll (ReissueOffsiteForCustomer, same machinery as the manual button). 2.3 escrow honesty
(red-proofed): re-issuing offsite marks the escrow stale (MarkEscrowStale), withholds the
mismatched restic hash from auto-confirm, DR checklist shows stale not done. Events:
claim_reissued_reenroll / offsite_reissued / escrow_stale.
Controller + scripts unchanged (source contradicted both premises): the controller reads escrow
prereqs live from the agent; the installer can't know the descriptor-provisioned storage id. F4
root fix is agent-side -> ROADMAP R-22; demo unblocked live (Part 0 ACL grant). VALIDATION doc
F2 erratum + F3/F4 dispositions. Green gate + Scenario-C red-proof pass.
Supervised clean-slate reinstall of the demo N100 from a pipeline-built Felhom ISO +
onboarding rehearsal. Core objectives GREEN: first-boot chain reached rc-0 on the first
attempt on real hardware (closes slice A's operator-gated boundary), serial-filter safety
proven on metal, PBS-DR reconciler self-healed on the reused peer, DMI verdict -> key on
MAC+UUID. Hard obstacle was firmware not the pipeline: this cheap AMI AN3PLUS 0.01 board
won't UEFI-boot the ISO's GRUB from USB (relocation 0x0; SB-off + shim-bypass don't help),
worked around live with a grub-mkimage loader from the box's own GRUB (slice-B input).
7 findings logged (F1 firmware loader HIGH; F2/F3/F4 reused-customer edges -> R-1/Peti;
F5 guest-RAM, F6 drive-init mount, F7 back-route). Full doc in documentation/tests/;
ROADMAP R-21 + REPORT + CONTEXT updated. No production code changed.
