Fixed in commit ab56054a: federation.remove-node now also purges the synthetic mesh peer, shared secret, messages, presence, and persisted contact entry (mesh::purge_federation_peer). Combined with the #42 name refresh, removing the stale 'Arch HP'/'HP Pro Desk' entry via the UI now fully clears it from the mesh chat list too. Pending deploy+test.

Correction: an earlier comment referencing commit ab56054a (federation remove-node mesh purge) was mis-filed on this issue by mistake — it belongs to #42, not this USB-flashing issue. Please disregard it here. This issue (USB flashing from kiosk) is unchanged.

Fixed (root cause matched your attachment): the image's archipelago user was created with only -G sudo, missing dialout, so it couldn't open the USB serial device to flash. image-recipe/build/auto-installer/Dockerfile.rootfs now creates it with -G sudo,dialout, so new images can flash out of the box. EXISTING nodes need the one-liner from your note once: sudo usermod -aG dialout archipelago (then re-login). Closing.
