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.
- DeleteHost(deleteEscrow) demotes current host_escrow into host_escrow_superseded (copy-before-delete, same tx), spares existing; one shared demoteCurrentEscrowTx (reused by SaveHostEscrow). F-14 provenance/gate unchanged.
- DeleteCustomerConfig now purges both escrow tables for all the customer's hosts incl. already-deleted (F-14 provenance UNION) — the one true purge point.
- Wording: checkbox/refusal/Danger-zone → demotion. S6b OBSOLETE. Red-proofs TestDeleteHost_Demotes + TestDeleteCustomer_Purges + wording guard.
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.
scripts/iso/: a DooPlex pipeline (build-felhom-iso.sh + Dockerfile.assistant) that
turns the official PVE ISO into a Felhom auto-install ISO whose first-boot stub
installs a retry-forever felhom-bootstrap unit which unattended-fetches
felhom-host-install.sh from the public felhom.eu/scripts channel and runs it until the
host is enrolled + a guest provisioned. host-install is UNMODIFIED (invoked only).
- build gates the answer on validate-answer OUTPUT text, never $? (spike S1 exit-0 trap)
- stub is from-iso, fully-up, exactly-once; retry unit owns all network work (S8a)
- retry-vs-resume encoded once: plain first, --resume when install state exists (v1.11.3)
- secret-bearing (embeds the retrieval passphrase): supervised/single-use; env shredded on success
Validated on VM 310: build gate + red-proof, disk-filter fail-safe, chain + retry,
resume-decision, exactly-once, no-net retry+recovery. Terminal host-install rc-0 success
operator-gated (drill customer needs the password-gated create-UI). scripts v1.16.0;
ROADMAP R-21 -> in-progress. Detail in REPORT.md.
Audit doc for the Day-0 VM drill: appliance install, floor-at-first-report,
escrow ceremony + auto-confirm FIRST LIVE FIRING (~7.5 min, zero clicks),
offsite backup + restore round-trip, PBS-DR/WG fork (Peti-sequence rehearsal).
Corrects day0-install.md A.2 (git creds optional since v1.11.2, anonymous
fetch is the normal shape) and RUNBOOK-escrow-ceremony.md (identity-only mode
does NOT exist — F-6; age prereq — F-10). REPORT.md overwritten; CONTEXT.md
one-liner added.

journalctl proved boot -1 came up at 23:31 WITHOUT networking: the agent automount
template's After/Wants=network-online.target cycles with local-fs.target and systemd
deleted networking.service to break it; the 06:45 power-cycle boot hit the same cycle
and deleted the automount instead. Every boot with an enrolled share is a coin flip
until the template drops that ordering. Recovery executed: automount started, apps
healed, privatebin removed via real flow, verification backup green.

Full hub->Hetzner->controller loop validated on demo-felhom against the new
dedicated-project pool box; 2 snapshots on the new box, key-only. F1/F3 fixed
mid-run (hub v0.38.1, controller v0.106.1); F2/F4/F5/F6 recorded open.

Descriptor.HostFingerprint (SHA256, non-secret), captured at provision via an
x/crypto/ssh keyscan (SSHHostKeyScanner — dials :23, grabs the host key from the
handshake, no ssh binary). Fail-closed: nil scanner or scan failure → error (don't
serve a descriptor the controller can't verify). Pairs with controller v0.106.0
which re-scans + refuses on mismatch (no blind TOFU).

Full cycle on the demo: enable→stage→real escrow-create (K+restic-pw under a
fresh R, uploaded to hub, staged wiped, K byte-unchanged)→atomicity proof (run
skipped before confirm, proceeded after — gate opens exactly on confirm). DR
money shot: restic password recovered from the PRODUCTION hub blob (via
identity-consume with R) is byte-identical to the live pw (sha 24c44f49) and
decrypted the real box repo; inject→restore endpoints reproduced a 45MB db-dump
byte-perfect. Demo left escrowed (un-paused); R held out-of-band; no secret in
logs; repo_password unchanged.

Real endpoints, fresh box sub-account. Discovery proof: immich (undeployed,
USB-only unit — the v0.103.0 mis-resolution case) → ok/1 snapshot on the USB
path; 45MB db-dump restore sha256-matched. No-silent-success on the live box:
0/N → error + backup_failed alert; partial → ok + LastWarning. Persists across
restart. Forks 1+2 confirmed (direct; sub-account /home/<name>, ssh-copy-id -s
-f, console key field still broken F3); fork-4 custody surface recorded, escrow
design OPEN (repo pw + key not independently recoverable). Kept as standing
demo-offsite.
