Dorian 9741e73824 fix: filebrowser port bind, CSRF in tests, console-setup, auto-test scope
FileBrowser crash fix:
- Add --cap-add=NET_BIND_SERVICE (port 80 needs it with --cap-drop=ALL)
- Add --cap-add=DAC_OVERRIDE for rootless volume access
- Both in first-boot script and backend config.rs

Test script fixes:
- Extract csrf_token cookie and send as X-CSRF-Token header on RPC calls
- Add --phase1-only flag for safe install-only checks (no side effects)
- Auto-test service uses --phase1-only so it doesn't steal onboarding

Install fixes:
- Pre-create ~/.local/share/containers (ReadWritePaths mount namespace error)
- Fix console-setup.service: add After=tmp.mount + ExecStartPre mkdir /tmp

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
./sync-from-live.sh

# 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: Stable Debian 12 (Bookworm) distribution
  • 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-debian-12-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.
