The install test's key sits in the user's home, which is its own
subvolume and not part of the factory snapshot, and the seal removes it
there. The check says so of every image, instead of leaving it to the
layout staying as it is.
The seal read /boot/EFI/Linux/omarchy_linux-omarchy.efi. An edge install
has linux-omarchy-bore, so the first nightly run stopped there. It now
asks the running system which kernel package it booted and takes that
UKI, and takes the command line from /proc/cmdline, since the boot
entry, not the UKI, may be what holds it. The nightly's package report
names the kernel the same way.
test/integration already installs the ISO unattended and saves the
installed disk as test-runs/<iso>-integration/base.qcow2, with its
firmware variables and the key that logs in to it. That folder is what
vm-seal takes, so the separate install script goes.
The sealed image now also carries the firmware variables, which hold the
boot entry the installer registered: a consumer that boots the disk
through UEFI needs them, a direct kernel boot does not.
builder/build-iso.sh puts omarchy-dev and omarchy-settings-dev on an edge
ISO, as it does on a dev or local one. The harness picked its package
names from the ISO's file name and knew dev, local and pr, so for an edge
ISO it asked the installer for the release packages.
As they were tested by hand on the 4.0.4 ISO, before any of it is wired
into a workflow:
vm-install unattended install of an ISO into a qcow2, through cidata
vm-seal makes the disk publishable: SSH takes keys only, no machine
ID, host keys, build key or build logs left, compressed
with zstd, with checksums and the kernel pulled out for
direct boot
vm-verify boots the sealed image once and checks all of that
vm-boot boots a throwaway copy with a key made for that boot and
runs a command in it
On this machine: install 114 s, seal 27 s, a 4.2 GB image, SSH about 5 s
after power-on, 17 of 17 verify checks, and 7 of them failing on an
image sealed without these fixes.
