Manuel Traut requested to merge manut/phosh-recipes:task/ab into main Oct 04, 2025

This is WIP, please don't merge for now.

I will try to get a system with an empty / (rootfs) partition and setting up everything from /usr:

Deploy all extra files to /usr
Migrate to Debian/forky with phosh-nightly/trixie to have systemd v258
Introduce the new partition layout, mount by dissect with partlabel filtering
Create a /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d configuration to populate /etc on first boot
Add systemd-sysupdate configuration and deploy update artifacts
Extend UKI with profile entry for Factory Reset

Any feedback about the next steps and the implementation is always welcome!
