Adds a fast, reproducible install path that unpacks a prebuilt AlmaLinux 9 node
rootfs onto the device (Anaconda liveimg) instead of resolving packages, with
per-host networking still templated after the unpack. Reuses the OptiPlex storage
vars so image and package installs lay disks out identically. Templates-only per
review; the rootfs build lives in the bootapi-images repo.
- kickstart/image.ks.tmpl: liveimg --url={{ .DistroVars.rootfs_tarball }};
%post renders per-host NetworkManager keyfiles from NetBox interface data
(the image is generic and liveimg overwrites /etc), hostname, puppet-initial
PUPPETCA_URL env, and the provisioned callback.
- kickstart/_storage.ks.tmpl: shared storage-block/storage-pre partials
(storage_mode / vg_grow); almalinux9.ks.tmpl now uses them (no behaviour
change).
- catalog/almalinux9-image.yaml (VM autopart) + optiplex-7080-image.yaml
(auto-nvme + vg_grow), rootfs_tarball -> artifactapi rootfs-images repo.
Rootfs tarball built+published by https://git.unkin.net/unkin/bootapi-images
(v* tag). Validated with bootapi validate + shellcheck; no bootapi code change.
