a94c203 added a RunSynchronous Path of 417 chars to both std/eng answer
files. Windows caps it at 259 and then rejects the WHOLE answer file, so
an Engineer build stopped at 'Windows could not parse or process unattend
answer file'. The live files were restored to their pre-a94c203 versions
the same day.
- The status steps now fit: Send-ImagingStage.ps1 -Persist copies itself
out of C:\Deploy (no cmd copy chain), short PowerShell switches, default
arguments left out. Longest Path is 168 chars; lint-unattend passes.
NOT deployed: these files must go live only through deploy-unattend.sh.
- scripts/deploy-unattend.sh: the only route for an answer file to a PXE
server. Lints first and refuses on any error, backs up, swaps
atomically, lints the live copy and restores the backup if that fails.
- .githooks/pre-commit (git config core.hooksPath .githooks): refuses a
commit whose staged unattend fails the linter. Verified by planting a
352-char Path (blocked) and against the exact a94c203 file (rejected).
- Boot menu: also accept SecureBoot read as hex 01, and show the raw values
in the warning so a wrong read can be diagnosed from the screen.
