- session.rs: use OnceCell for remember_secret to prevent concurrent requests on first boot from generating different HMAC secrets, which caused CSRF token mismatch on every state-changing RPC call (app install, start, stop all failed with "CSRF token missing or invalid") - install.rs: write lnd.conf with Bitcoin RPC credentials before LND container starts (prevents "bitcoin.mainnet must be specified" crash); inject Bitcoin RPC auth into bitcoin-ui nginx.conf; add proper error logging to UI container build/run steps; fix UI containers to use --network=host (they proxy to localhost backend/bitcoin RPC) - Tor: remove After=tor.service from archipelago-tor-helper.path to break systemd ordering cycle that prevented Tor from starting on boot - Seed screen: compact grid layout (2 cols mobile, 4 cols sm+) with tighter padding to fit kiosk displays without scrolling - Dockerfiles: remove nonexistent assets/ COPY from bitcoin-ui, fix electrs-ui to COPY qrcode.js and EXPOSE 50002 (matches nginx.conf) - image-versions.sh: add UI container image variables for registry Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
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.
