Redirect the live autologin compositor's stdout/stderr to
/var/log/hyprland-live.log, and on exit drop to an interactive shell
showing the return code instead of letting the getty autologin
respawn-loop hide any startup failure behind a blank blinking cursor.
Makes a failed live boot diagnosable and leaves the medium usable.

On GPU-less targets (VMs, headless, exotic hardware) wlroots refuses to
initialise without a hardware renderer, so the autologin session exec'd
Hyprland on tty1 and it died immediately — leaving a blinking cursor and
no desktop, while tty2 still showed the (correct) `bos` login.
Export WLR_RENDERER_ALLOW_SOFTWARE=1 before exec Hyprland in root's
.bash_profile so wlroots may use the llvmpipe software renderer when no
GPU renderer exists. On real hardware the hardware renderer is still
chosen; this is purely a fallback. Also set WLR_NO_HARDWARE_CURSORS=1 so
the pointer isn't invisible in VMs. Both must be real env vars (read at
wlroots init), not Hyprland `env=` lines, which apply too late.

The fixed initramfs boots into userspace, but systemd-firstboot
(ConditionFirstBoot=yes, --prompt-locale --prompt-keymap-auto
--prompt-timezone --prompt-root-password) then blocked the console
waiting for interactive input, and root was locked (no /etc/shadow),
so the live medium never reached the autologin getty + Hyprland.
Ship the same base files releng uses to satisfy firstboot and unlock
root for autologin:
- etc/locale.conf (LANG=C.UTF-8) -> no locale prompt
- etc/localtime (-> UTC) -> no timezone prompt
- etc/vconsole.conf (KEYMAP=us) -> no keymap prompt
- etc/hostname (bos)
- etc/shadow (root unlocked, empty pw, perms 0400 via profiledef)
- etc/passwd (root shell = bash; system users are appended by the
systemd-sysusers pacman hook during pacstrap)
The overlay is applied before pacstrap (mkarchiso _make_custom_airootfs
precedes _make_packages) and these are pacman backup files, so the
static passwd/shadow act as the base and package scriptlets add the
rest — no clobbering of polkitd/pipewire/etc. users.

The profile shipped boot configs and the package list but lacked the
mkinitcpio archiso configuration, so mkarchiso built a stock initramfs
with no archiso hook. At boot the kernel honoured archisosearchuuid/
archisobasedir but nothing knew how to find and mount airootfs.sfs, so
switch-root failed and the live medium dropped to emergency mode.
Add the canonical releng pieces:
- airootfs/etc/mkinitcpio.conf.d/archiso.conf (HOOKS incl. archiso)
- airootfs/etc/mkinitcpio.d/linux.preset (builds initramfs-linux.img)
- mkinitcpio{,-archiso,-nfs-utils} in packages.x86_64

Calamares isn't in Arch's official repos, so BOS vendors the PKGBUILD and
publishes a built package to the [breadway] repo. All its deps are official
(kpmcore, qt6-*, yaml-cpp). Also drop the nonexistent calamares-qt6 from the
package list (calamares 3.4.x is already Qt6).

mkarchiso validation: bios.syslinux.mbr/eltorito and uefi-x64.* bootmodes
are deprecated -> use bios.syslinux + uefi.systemd-boot. syslinux must be
in the package list for the BIOS bootmode; add memtest86+/edk2-shell too.

The profile declared syslinux + systemd-boot bootmodes but lacked the
required config directories, so mkarchiso would fail. Added from the
official releng profile, rebranded to Bread OS; %PLACEHOLDER% tokens are
substituted by mkarchiso at build time.

- logo.png (productLogo/productIcon): rasterised from the bread logo, transparent
- languages.png (productWelcome): logo centred on a light Nord canvas
- logo.svg / bread_white.svg: source vector
Resolves the missing-branding-asset blocker so Calamares can render.
Colour scheme can be refined when final SVGs land.

calamares and calamares-qt6 are in Arch's extra repo; no custom PKGBUILD
needed. Update packages.x86_64 and the pacman.conf comment accordingly.

Forgejo serves the repo db as {owner}.{group}.{domain}.db, and pacman
fetches "<section>.db" from Server — so the section name must match.

- package.yml: use correct Arch registry upload (octet-stream + binary body
+ PUT /api/packages/Breadway/arch/os), drop --privileged, remove
actions/checkout (archlinux image has no Node) in favour of a manual
shell clone, use the built-in Actions token instead of a stored secret,
and --nocheck (tests belong in CI, not packaging)
- mirror.yml: clone --mirror + explicit refs/heads + refs/tags push with
--prune, instead of pushing refs/remotes pollution from a checkout
- pacman.conf: correct Server URL to the Forgejo Arch registry format
Requires only the GITHUB_MIRROR_TOKEN secret (GitHub PAT, repo scope) for
the mirror job; package publishing uses the automatic per-run token.

- .forgejo/workflows/mirror.yml: mirrors every push/tag to GitHub
- .forgejo/workflows/package.yml: builds PKGBUILD on tag and publishes
bos-settings to the Forgejo Arch package registry (distrib=breadway)
- iso/pacman.conf: replace placeholder repo.breadway.dev with the actual
Forgejo package registry URL
Requires two Forgejo secrets:
GITHUB_MIRROR_TOKEN — GitHub PAT with repo push scope
FORGEJO_TOKEN — Forgejo token with package:write scope

- Fix XDG config dir logic in config/mod.rs (was double-nesting and had /home/user hardcode)
- Replace /home/user hardcodes in breadbar.rs and hyprland.rs with config::config_dir()
- Fix /home/user hardcode in packages.rs (uses /root fallback for .local/state path)
- Remove eprintln! from GTK callback in packages.rs (no stderr at runtime)
- Fix YAML parse error in branding.desc (missing space after sidebarTextHighlight key)
- Add .gitignore (Rust target/, ISO artifacts, editor/OS junk, secrets)
- Delete state.rs (dead code — never mod'd in main.rs)
- Add brightnessctl, grim, slurp to packages.x86_64 (used by keybinds)
- Rename can-you-begin-a-composed-beacon.md → DESIGN.md

ISO structural:
- Move post-install.sh → airootfs/etc/calamares/ (it was never in the squashfs)
- Create airootfs/etc/skel/.config/ with all dotfiles (deploy path now works)
- Add iso/pacman.conf with [breadway] custom repo stub for calamares + bakery
- Add Calamares branding component (bos/branding.desc + show.qml)
- Add missing unpackfs.conf and mount.conf modules
- Add live-session autostart: getty autologin → bash_profile → Hyprland → calamares
- Add polkit rule for wheel-group snapper rollback (pkexec path)
- Remove wlroots from packages (bundled with Hyprland); add bakery to package list
- Fix modules-search path in settings.conf
Dotfiles:
- Rename dotfiles/hyprland/ → dotfiles/hypr/ (Hyprland reads ~/.config/hypr/)
- Fix deprecated shadow options: drop_shadow/shadow_range → shadow { } block
bos-settings Rust:
- Replace glib::MainContext::channel (removed in glib 0.19) with async_channel

- Fix zombie processes: per-package update buttons now wait() in a thread
- Fix sidebar/stack mismatch at startup: select snapshots row to match default view
- Replace deprecated MessageDialog with AlertDialog (GTK 4.10+) throughout
- Use pkexec for snapper rollback so polkit handles privilege escalation
- Add confirmation dialog before delete snapshot (was missing, rollback had one)
- Add refresh button + repopulate after delete in snapshots view
- Add "Saved" / "Error: …" status label to every config view save button
- Add "Remove" buttons to breadbox contexts and breadcrumbs profiles
- Remove hardcoded model string from breadpad defaults
- Drop unused state mod; fix config_dir HOME fallback; fix zombie in editor launches
