archipelago 6c2b6668dc fix(iso): honor TMPDIR for the QEMU boot-test disk/serial log
Both the 20G sparse qcow2 test disk and the serial console log were
hardcoded to /tmp regardless of $TMPDIR, so pointing the ISO release
build at a disk-backed scratch dir (to avoid tmpfs space pressure)
would not have covered this stage. Falls back to /tmp when TMPDIR is
unset — no behavior change for existing callers.

Archived ISO build recipes

These scripts built the Archipelago auto-installer ISO (bundled and unbundled variants). As of v1.7.43-alpha, ISOs are no longer part of the release deliverable. Releases ship as tarballs consumed by scripts/self-update.sh on existing nodes.

Archived here rather than deleted so they can be resurrected if ISO distribution is reintroduced.

Contents

  • build-auto-installer-iso.sh — orchestrator, bundles container images into squashfs
  • build-unbundled-iso.sh — thin wrapper that sets BUNDLE_IMAGES=0 and delegates
  • test-iso-qemu.sh — smoke-tests a built ISO under QEMU
  • scripts/convert-iso-to-disk.sh — converts an ISO to a raw disk image
  • BUILD-ISO-STATUS.md, ISO-BUILD-CHECKLIST.md — contributor guides
  • branding/isohdpfx.bin — isolinux MBR hybrid image
  • .gitea-workflows/build-iso-dev.yml — CI workflow that ran the build+smoke-test

To resurrect

  1. git mv image-recipe/_archived/* image-recipe/ (adjust paths back)
  2. Restore .gitea/workflows/build-iso-dev.yml
  3. Re-add release-process references (see scripts/create-release.sh, docs/BETA-RELEASE-CHECKLIST.md, docs/hotfix-process.md, README.md).

Why archived

The release flow is simpler and faster as tarball-only:

  • releases/vX.Y.Z-alpha/archipelago (backend binary)
  • releases/vX.Y.Z-alpha/archipelago-frontend-X.Y.Z-alpha.tar.gz (frontend + AIUI + filebrowser UI assets)
  • releases/manifest.json (pointers + changelog)

Nodes pull these via scripts/self-update.sh from either Gitea mirror. Filebrowser and AIUI remain bundled inside the frontend tarball and deployed atomically by self-update.sh.
