feat(kiosk): graphics tiers + Settings knob; network map kiosk mode
The animated federation map froze the framework-pt 4K TV: the launcher
held every machine to the HD 5500-era choppy-audio flags (single raster
thread, GpuRasterization banned) while the map wrote SVG attrs at 60fps.

- Launcher: two flag tiers. legacy = the proven conservative set; modern
  (Intel gen8+, 'NNth Gen' models, AMD Ryzen) = default raster threads +
  GPU rasterization. Classified from /proc/cpuinfo (11 model strings
  covered by tests in-session); KIOSK_GRAPHICS=performance|quality in
  kiosk-display.conf overrides; headless unchanged. Reaches deployed
  kiosks via the include_str! self-heal, same as the vsync fix.
- system.kiosk-display.get/set: carries a 'graphics' field alongside
  'preset'; setting one no longer clobbers the other.
- Settings → Display: Graphics picker (Auto / Compatibility / Quality).
- NetworkMap3D: kiosks default to the 2D projection (remembered toggle
  still works) and tick at half rate with carried-over deltas — same
  spin speed, half the paint cost.
- Changelog: curated Unreleased notes for all of the above + the gate
  frame-embedding fix.

Archipelago OS Image Recipes

Build scripts for creating bootable Debian Linux OS images for Archipelago Bitcoin Node OS.

Quick Start

Build the ISO

# 1. Sync latest configs from live dev server

# 2. Build components
./scripts/build-backend.sh
./scripts/build-frontend.sh

# 3. Build the ISO
./build-debian-iso.sh

This creates a bootable Debian Live ISO with Archipelago pre-installed.

Write to USB

# Using dd (recommended)
./write-usb-dd.sh /dev/diskN

# Or use Balena Etcher to flash the ISO

See the ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md for a comprehensive build workflow.

See the Architecture documentation for detailed system information.

What's Included

  • Debian Linux Base: Debian 13 (Trixie) with security updates applied during ISO/install creation
  • Podman: Container runtime for apps (rootless by default)
  • Archipelago Backend: Rust-based API server
  • Archipelago Frontend: Vue.js web interface
  • Systemd Services: Automatic service management
  • Network Configuration: NetworkManager for easy setup

Build Output

  • results/archipelago-installer-x86_64.iso - Bootable hybrid ISO image

Supported Platforms

  • x86_64: Dell OptiPlex, HP ProDesk 400 G4 DM, Start9 Server Pure, and other x86_64 machines
  • Build Systems: macOS (requires Docker) and Linux (native or Docker)

Installation Methods

1. Live USB Boot

Boot from USB, run in live mode to test, or install to disk.

2. Full Disk Installation

From the live environment, run:

sudo /archipelago/install-to-disk.sh

This installs Archipelago to a target disk using debootstrap.
