Ports the Fedora provisioning features that matter for a router onto the
VyOS path, and adds the libvirt integration test that proves them.
- Live install logs: the driver streams the installer pty (ANSI-stripped,
batched, best-effort) to POST /api/log, so `labctl provision logs -f`
works during a VyOS install the way Anaconda's syslog does for Fedora.
- installed.ip: report "ready at <ip>" -- the exact detail format
routes/api.ts parses -- using the static mgmt address when known, else
the live DHCP address. Without it VyOS machines landed with an empty IP,
breaking provision list, logs-by-IP, recheck and reprovision.
api.ts also guards the complete handler: VyOS boxes get the "vyos" SSH
hint and never trigger the k3s post-provision.
- EFI network-first boot order: port of the Fedora %post efibootmgr step,
run from the live env after install (NVRAM, not disk). Best-effort.
- Reinstall semantics: VyOS's installer already carries the previous
config and SSH host keys forward -- the analog of Fedora's LV
preservation -- so that stays the default. New --vyos-fresh-config
overwrites the installed config.boot with the generated one instead,
via a post-install target mount that also writes /config/lab-provisioned
(mirrors Fedora's /etc/lab-provisioned, survives image upgrades).
- reprovision/recheck default to the "vyos" SSH user for VyOS machines.
Two hangs found by the VM test and fixed:
- On reinstall the installer asks "Would you like to copy data to the new
image?" (search_previous_installation). Unanswered, the driver blocked
on stdin until its stall timeout -- a silent 15-minute hang.
- The RAID regex missed "Would you like to choose two disks for RAID-1
mirroring?", which would wedge any multi-disk box. Both prompts default
to yes, so a miss also risks an unwanted mirror.
Both are now covered by a unit test asserting all 17 installer prompts
match exactly one rule -- verified to fail against the unfixed code, so
this class of bug is caught in a second instead of a 45-minute VM run.
tests/integration/vyos-provision.test.ts: fresh install, reinstall
preserves config + /config data, and freshConfig override. All 8 pass
against the real nightly ISO (EXIT=0). 273 unit tests pass; no new lint
errors in touched files.
