ARM integration test:
- arm-iso-provision.test.ts: aarch64 VM boots from bastion-generated ISO
- Uses QEMU aarch64 emulation (slow but validates the R1 scenario)
- Generous timeouts for emulated boot (15min discovery, 60min install)
- test-provision.sh updated: `sudo ./scripts/test-provision.sh arm`
VM boot fixes:
- setBootDisk() preserves UEFI loader/nvram when switching to disk boot
- /boot/efi mount gets nofail in fstab (prevents emergency mode in VMs)
- chronyd enable uses || true (fails in kickstart chroot)
- createIsoVm supports arch parameter for ARM VMs
Note: SSH-after-reboot in OVMF VMs still fails — OVMF doesn't respect
efibootmgr changes and loops PXE/HTTP Boot. Real hardware works fine.
The install flow itself (discovery → kickstart → complete) is validated.

Kickstart installs on real hardware failed silently — no error reporting,
only 3 progress callbacks, zero log streaming. This overhaul makes every
install fully observable.
Kickstart improvements:
- Error trapping in %pre and %post (trap ERR sends failure details to bastion)
- 12+ granular progress stages (was 3): SSH, hostname, k3s prep, EFI boot, metadata
- Background log streamer: tails %post output and batch-sends to /api/log
- bastion_log() function for explicit log lines from kickstart scripts
Bastion API:
- POST /api/log — receives raw log lines from kickstart (single or batch)
- InstallLogBuffer — per-MAC ring buffer (2000 lines) + file persistence
- GET /api/logs/:mac — now returns log_lines + log_total alongside stages
- SSE /api/logs/:mac/follow — uses named events (event: stage vs event: log)
- Progress events forwarded to labd via bastion-progress WebSocket message
- Post-provision k3s logs routed through progressBus (was console-only)
dnsmasq fixes found during VM testing:
- HTTP Boot filename: ipxe-real.efi → ipxe.efi (leftover from old 2-stage approach)
- pxe-service directives: only in proxy mode (breaks OVMF PXE in full mode)
- PXEClient vendor class echo for UEFI firmware compatibility
Integration tests:
- PXE boot test: blank UEFI VM → dnsmasq → HTTP Boot → iPXE → bastion → install
- ISO boot test: blank VM boots from bastion-generated ISO → same flow
- Shared helpers: pxe-network (no DHCP, nftables fix), pxe-vm (UEFI + ISO boot)
- test-provision.sh: runs both PXE + ISO tests with prerequisite checks
- 250GB sparse QCOW2 disk (LVM layout needs ~204GB)
201 unit tests passing (11 new).

Full rewrite of the bash bastion.sh into a TypeScript application:
- Fastify HTTP server with typed routes (dispatch, kickstart, API)
- Commander CLI (serve, install, list, reprovision)
- Kickstart templates as TypeScript template literals (no more heredoc hell)
- dnsmasq management via execa subprocess
- Merged machine list view (hardware + install info in one table)
- Containerized via podman-compose (Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml)
- All partition logic preserved (LVM, reprovision detection, role-based)
Not yet tested end-to-end — needs VM validation before replacing bash version.
