This lets you boot from ipxe. You can run the ipxe shell from their
stock image or the netboot.xyz one. For the latter, press "m", then type
"dhcp" (machine is now pingable!) then type "route" to check the ip.
To boot type:
chain http://192.168.42.1:4280/menu.ipxe
and you're off!
Thanks to frebib for finding the workaround to the VFS bug. The answer
is you need to run the imgfree command to unblock the initrd.
With the release of Fedora 41, I was getting lots of mirror errors.
Hopefully this helps make it more robust. It was failing repeatedly
while trying to download packages, and I kept having to restart things,
but once I added this option things worked. Hopefully they're related.
This commit adds the ability to build a standalone provisioning tool.
This is the first useful public mcl code base as well. It is not
perfect, but does serve as a rough starting point to show what is
possible. In the future as the language and the engine evolve, this will
likely get more elegant, and also grow new features.
To build this, run `make clean && GOTAGS='embedded_provisioner' make`.
To run this, run `mgmt provisioner`.
