- Fetch kmod-$KVER.tar.gz first, falling back to kmod.tar.gz, so more
than one boot kernel can share the web root. Live now boots the UEFI
path on Ubuntu's 24.04 HWE 7.0.0-34-generic kernel: Panther Lake
laptops (Dell Pro 14, AX211 on CNVi) need iwlwifi firmware API 100,
which the 6.8 driver cannot load. 6.8 stays deployed as the rollback.
- The 10s DefaultTimeoutStopSec did not reach the /mnt/share mount: a
mount unit's timeout is TimeoutSec=, defaulting to the start timeout.
Add a mnt-share.mount drop-in with TimeoutSec=10s, LazyUnmount=yes and
ForceUnmount=yes.
NOT in the playbook yet: it builds the initrd and kmod tarball from the
server's running kernel (6.8). The 7.0 artifacts on 172.16.9.1 were
built off-box; installing linux-generic-hwe-24.04 on the server is what
makes a playbook run reproduce them.
