* session: Bare metal ZFSBootMenu validation on ratioCraig Jennings2026-01-231-0/+34
| | | | | Validated install-archzfs on Framework Desktop with 2-disk NVMe mirror. ZFSBootMenu installed on both EFI partitions with redundant boot entries.
* session: ZFSBootMenu implementation and testing completeCraig Jennings2026-01-232-27/+85
| | | | | Implemented and tested ZFSBootMenu bootloader replacement. All VM tests passed (single disk, mirror, raidz1). ISO copied to Ventoy drive.
* Replace GRUB with ZFSBootMenu bootloaderCraig Jennings2026-01-2213-564/+1232
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a major change that replaces the GRUB bootloader with ZFSBootMenu, providing native ZFS boot environment support. Key changes: - EFI partition reduced from 1GB to 512MB (only holds ZFSBootMenu) - EFI now mounts at /efi instead of /boot - Kernel and initramfs live on ZFS root (enables snapshot boot with matching kernel) - Downloads pre-built ZFSBootMenu EFI binary from get.zfsbootmenu.org - Creates EFI boot entries for all disks in multi-disk configurations - Syncs ZFSBootMenu to all EFI partitions for redundancy - Sets org.zfsbootmenu:commandline on zroot/ROOT for kernel cmdline inheritance - Sets bootfs pool property for default boot environment - AMD GPU workarounds (pg_mask, cwsr_enable) added to kernel cmdline when AMD detected Deleted GRUB snapshot tooling (no longer needed): - custom/grub-zfs-snap - custom/40_zfs_snapshots - custom/zz-grub-zfs-snap.hook - custom/zfs-snap-prune Updated helper scripts: - zfssnapshot: removed grub-zfs-snap call, shows ZFSBootMenu tip - zfsrollback: removed grub-zfs-snap call, notes auto-detection Tested configurations: - Single disk installation - 2-disk mirror (mirror-0) - 3-disk RAIDZ1 (raidz1-0) - All boot correctly with ZFSBootMenu
* Document Strix Halo VPE/CWSR freeze issues and workaroundsCraig Jennings2026-01-222-0/+255
| | | | | | | | - Add instructions for applying pg_mask=0 and cwsr_enable=0 workarounds - Document that kernel 6.18.x has critical bugs, stay on 6.15.x-6.17.x - Add session docs, mkinitcpio fixes, and Donato Capitella video transcript - Add PRINCIPLES.org for behavioral lessons learned - Update protocols.org from template
* Clean up session context and add .stignoreCraig Jennings2026-01-222-50/+2
|
* Simplify session startup instructions in protocols.orgCraig Jennings2026-01-221-2/+1
|
* Remove autodetect from mkinitcpio HOOKS documentationCraig Jennings2026-01-221-5/+7
| | | | | autodetect during chroot install detects live ISO hardware, not target machine. Could leave out NVMe/AHCI drivers.
* Add session notes for ratio boot fix and retrospective workflowCraig Jennings2026-01-221-0/+36
| | | | | Documented boot fix session including firmware requirement, GRUB configuration, and behavioral principles for future sessions.
* Add retrospective workflow and PRINCIPLES.org for continuous improvementCraig Jennings2026-01-223-14/+140
| | | | | | | | | - docs/PRINCIPLES.org: Behavioral lessons from retrospectives - docs/retrospectives/: Directory for retrospective records - docs/protocols.org: Add PRINCIPLES.org to session startup reading list Establishes pattern for learning from problem-solving sessions and capturing behavioral (not just technical) lessons.
* Update ratio session doc: kernel 6.15.2 now default with clean GRUB menuCraig Jennings2026-01-221-0/+66
| | | | | | | - Created custom GRUB entries for cleaner boot menu - Set kernel 6.15.2 as default, LTS as fallback - Pinned linux package in pacman.conf - Documented UUID gotcha with mirrored NVMe boot partitions
* Fix ratio boot issues: firmware, mkinitcpio, and document ZFS rollback dangersCraig Jennings2026-01-227-0/+794
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Root cause: Missing/outdated linux-firmware broke AMD Strix Halo GPU init. Fixed by installing linux-firmware 20260110-1. Changes: - install-archzfs: Fix mkinitcpio config (remove archiso.conf, fix preset) - todo.org: Add ZFS rollback + /boot mismatch issue, recommend ZFSBootMenu - docs/2026-01-22-ratio-boot-fix-session.org: Full troubleshooting session - docs/2026-01-22-mkinitcpio-config-boot-failure.org: Bug report - assets/: Supporting documentation and video transcript Key learnings: - AMD Strix Halo requires linux-firmware 20260110+ - ZFS rollback with /boot on EFI partition can break boot - zpool import -R can permanently change mountpoints
* Fix ZFS boot failures: service conflicts, cachefile, and GRUB duplicate rootCraig Jennings2026-01-211-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three bugs were preventing installed systems from booting: 1. ZFS package preset (50-zfs.preset) enables zfs-import-cache by default, overriding our attempt to use zfs-import-scan. Now explicitly disable zfs-import-cache before enabling zfs-import-scan. 2. zfs-import-scan has ConditionFileNotEmpty=!/etc/zfs/zpool.cache which prevents it from running if cachefile exists. Now remove cachefile after setting cachefile=none. 3. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX contained root=ZFS=... but grub-mkconfig also auto-detects ZFS root, causing duplicate root= parameters. Removed manual root= since grub-mkconfig handles it correctly. All 22 tests pass (19 sanity + 3 installation configs).
* Reorganize todo.org: flatten hierarchy and sort by priorityCraig Jennings2026-01-211-150/+94
| | | | | | | | | - Move all tasks to same level (no nested headers) - Add "Idea from:" attribution for external sources - Sort tasks by priority (A, B, C, D) - Expand build logging task with archsetup UX reference - Clarify multi-variant builds as very low priority - Trim Resolved section for brevity
* Reorganize todo.org and add architectural/test improvementsCraig Jennings2026-01-211-309/+267
| | | | | | | | | | | | - Move completed items to Resolved section - Add RAID configuration tests (mirror, raidz) - Add pre-flight validation to install-archzfs - Add task to extract install-archzfs into testable functions - Add negative/failure test cases - Add install-archzfs --dry-run mode Improvements based on quality engineering principles: fail fast, testable architecture, error case coverage.
* Restore file ownership after build and rename todo.orgCraig Jennings2026-01-212-0/+24
| | | | | | | - Add chown step to build.sh to restore ownership to invoking user after mkarchiso completes (fixes root-owned out/work/profile dirs) - Rename TODO.org to todo.org (lowercase) - Add todo item for post-install reboot countdown timer
* Use zfs-import-scan instead of zfs-import-cache for bootCraig Jennings2026-01-212-28/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch to the recommended pool import method that uses blkid to scan for pools instead of relying on zpool.cache. This eliminates the complexity of managing cachefile paths with altroot during installation. Changes: - Remove cachefile setup from create_zfs_pool() and configure_zfs_services() - Enable zfs-import-scan.service instead of zfs-import-cache.service - Set cachefile=none on the pool since it's not needed - Update full-test.sh to verify zfs-import-scan is enabled This approach is recommended per the Arch Wiki and doesn't require the cachefile to be present in the initramfs.
* Add initramfs and reboot verification testsCraig Jennings2026-01-201-0/+52
| | | | | | | - Check zpool.cache is present in initramfs (catches cachefile bugs) - Add reboot test: issue reboot, wait for system to come back - Verify ZFS pool healthy after reboot - Ensures the installed system can survive a reboot cycle
* Fix ZFS boot failure: set cachefile property after pool creationCraig Jennings2026-01-203-37/+63
| | | | | | | - Add zpool set cachefile=/etc/zfs/zpool.cache after pool creation - Without this, initramfs ZFS hook can't import pool at boot - Causes "cannot import '(null)': no such pool available" error - Add cachefile property test to full-test.sh
