All final artefacts for a given version now land in one place:
dist/easy-bee-v4.1/
easy-bee-nvidia-v4.1-amd64.iso
easy-bee-nvidia-v4.1-amd64.logs.tar.gz ← log archive
(logs dir deleted after archiving)
- Introduce OUT_DIR="${DIST_DIR}/easy-bee-v${ISO_VERSION_EFFECTIVE}"
- Move LOG_DIR, LOG_ARCHIVE, and ISO_OUT into OUT_DIR
- cleanup_build_log: use dirname(LOG_DIR) as tar -C base so the path is
correct regardless of where OUT_DIR lives; delete LOG_DIR after archiving

When 8 john processes start simultaneously they race for GPU memory during
OpenCL GWS auto-tuning. Slower devices settle on a smaller work size (~594MiB
vs 762MiB) and run at 40% instead of 100% load. Add 3s sleep between launches
so each instance finishes memory allocation before the next one starts.

- bee-john-gpu-stress: spawn one john process per OpenCL device in parallel
so all GPUs are stressed simultaneously instead of only device 1
- bee-openbox-session: --start-fullscreen → --start-maximized to fix blank
white page on first render in fbdev environment
- storage collector: skip Virtual HDisk* devices reported by BMC/iDRAC
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- nvidia collector: read pcie.link.gen.current/max from nvidia-smi instead
of sysfs to avoid false Gen1 readings when GPU is in ASPM idle state
- build: remove bee-nccl-gpu-stress from rm -f list so shell script from
overlay is not silently dropped from the ISO
- smoketest: add explicit checks for bee-gpu-burn, bee-john-gpu-stress,
bee-nccl-gpu-stress, all_reduce_perf
- netconf: re-exec via sudo when not root to fix RTNETLINK/resolv.conf errors
- auto/config: reduce loglevel 7→3 to show clean systemd output on boot
- auto/config: blacklist snd_hda_intel and related audio modules (unused on servers)
- package-lists: remove firmware-intel-sound and firmware-amd-graphics from
base list; move firmware-amd-graphics to bee-amd variant only
- bible-local: mark memtest ADR resolved, document working solution

- Burn tab: replace 6 flat cards with 3 grouped cards (GPU Stress,
Compute Stress, Platform Thermal Cycling) + global Burn Profile
- Run All button at top enqueues all enabled tests across all cards
- GPU Stress: tool checkboxes enabled/disabled via new /api/gpu/tools
endpoint based on driver status (/dev/nvidia0, /dev/kfd)
- Compute Stress: checkboxes for cpu/memory-stress/stressapptest
- Platform Thermal Cycling: component checkboxes (cpu/nvidia/amd)
with platform_components param wired through to PlatformStressOptions
- bee-gpu-burn: default size-mb changed from 64 to 0 (auto); script
now queries nvidia-smi memory.total per GPU and uses 95% of it
- platform_stress: removed hardcoded --size-mb 64; respects Components
field to selectively run CPU and/or GPU load goroutines

ISO 9660 volume labels allow only A-Z, 0-9, and underscore.
Dashes cause xorriso WARNING on every build.
EASY-BEE-NVIDIA → EASY_BEE_NVIDIA (iso-application keeps dashes, it's UDF).

memtest86+ postinst does not place files in /boot in a live-build chroot
without grub triggers. Added fallback: extract directly from the cached
.deb via dpkg-deb -x, with verbose logging throughout.
Also remove "NVIDIA no MSI-X" from boot menu (premature — root cause unknown).

live-build picks up ALL .list.chroot files in config/package-lists/.
After rsync, bee-nvidia.list.chroot, bee-amd.list.chroot, and
bee-nogpu.list.chroot all end up in BUILD_WORK_DIR — causing lb to
try installing packages from every variant (and leaving version
placeholders unsubstituted in the unused lists).
Fix: after copying bee-${BEE_GPU_VENDOR}.list.chroot → bee-gpu.list.chroot,
delete all other bee-{nvidia,amd,nogpu}.list.chroot from BUILD_WORK_DIR.
Also includes nomsi boot mode changes (bee-nvidia-load + grub.cfg).

- build.sh: add --variant nvidia|amd; separate work dirs per variant
(live-build-work-nvidia / live-build-work-amd); GPU-specific steps
(modules, NCCL, cuBLAS, nccl-tests) run only for nvidia; deb package
cache synced back to shared location after each lb build so second
variant reuses downloaded packages; ISO output named
easy-bee-{variant}-v{ver}-amd64.iso
- build-in-container.sh: add --variant nvidia|amd|all (default: all);
runs build.sh twice in one container for 'all'; --clean-build wipes
both variant work dirs
- package-lists: remove GPU packages from bee.list.chroot; add
bee-nvidia.list.chroot (DCGM) and bee-amd.list.chroot (ROCm)
- 9000-bee-setup hook: read /etc/bee-gpu-vendor; enable bee-nvidia.service
and DCGM only for nvidia; set up ROCm symlinks only for amd
- auto/config: --iso-volume uses BEE_GPU_VENDOR_UPPER env var
- grub.cfg: add nomodeset to EASY-BEE and EASY-BEE (load to RAM) entries
— fixes X/lightdm on BMC KVM (ASPEED AST chip requires nomodeset for
fbdev to work; NVIDIA H100 compute does not need KMS)
- bee.sh / smoketest.sh: add /usr/sbin to PATH so dmidecode, smartctl,
nvme are found
- 9100-memtest hook: add diagnostic listing of chroot/boot/memtest* files

ROCM_BANDWIDTH_TEST_VERSION, ROCM_VALIDATION_SUITE_VERSION, ROCBLAS,
ROCRAND, HIP_RUNTIME_AMD, HIPBLASLT, COMGR were defined in VERSIONS and
in bee.list.chroot but the sed substitution block only covered 3 of them.

- Add udev rule: /dev/ipmi0 readable by 'ipmi' group (no sudo needed)
- Add 'ipmi' group creation and bee user membership in chroot hook
- Remove legend from all charts (data shown in GPU table below)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Without these modules /dev/ipmi0 doesn't exist and ipmitool can't
read fan RPM, PSU fans, or IPMI temperature sensors.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add rocm-validation-suite, rocblas, rocrand, hip-runtime-amd,
hipblaslt, comgr to ISO (~700MB, needed for HIP compute)
- RunAMDStressPack: run RVS GST (SGEMM ~31 TFLOPS/GPU) + bandwidth test
- Add rvs symlink in chroot setup hook
- Pin all new package versions in VERSIONS
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add rocm-bandwidth-test package to ISO
- Add bee user to 'render' group (/dev/kfd, /dev/dri/renderD* access)
- Add rocm-bandwidth-test symlink alongside rocm-smi

- bee-web.service: remove After=bee-audit so Go starts immediately
- Go serves loading page from / when audit JSON not yet present;
JS polls /api/ready (503 until file exists, 200 when ready)
then redirects to dashboard
- bee-openbox-session: wait for /healthz (Go binds fast <2s),
open http://localhost/ directly — no file:// cross-origin issues
- Remove loading.html static file
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace 15s blocking wait with instant Chromium launch showing a
dark loading page that polls /healthz every 500ms and auto-redirects
to the app when ready.

memtest files live in chroot /boot (inside squashfs) but GRUB needs
them on the ISO filesystem. Binary hook copies them out at build time.

Switch to performance governor when task queue starts processing,
back to powersave when queue drains. Removes bee-cpuperf.service.

- Task queue: all SAT/audit jobs enqueue and run one-at-a-time;
tasks persist past page navigation; new Tasks page with cancel/priority/log stream
- UI: consolidate nav (Validate, Burn, Tasks, Tools); Audit becomes modal;
Dashboard hardware summary badges + split metrics charts (load/temp/power);
Tools page consolidates network, services, install, support bundle
- AMD GPU: acceptance test and stress burn cards; GPU presence API greys
out irrelevant SAT cards automatically
- Burn tests: Memory Stress (stress-ng --vm), SAT Stress (stressapptest)
- Install to RAM: copies squashfs to /dev/shm, re-associates loop devices
via LOOP_CHANGE_FD ioctl so live media can be ejected
- Charts: relative time axis (0 = now, negative left)
- memtester: LimitMEMLOCK=infinity in bee-web.service; empty output → UNSUPPORTED
- SAT overlay applied dynamically on every /audit.json serve
- MIME panic guard for LiveCD ramdisk I/O errors
- ISO: add memtest86+, stressapptest packages; memtest86+ GRUB entry;
disable screensaver/DPMS in bee-openbox-session
- Unknown SAT status severity = 1 (does not override OK)

Move datacenter-gpu-manager and rocm-smi-lib from dynamic chroot hooks
into live-build's config/archives mechanism so lb caches the .deb files
in cache/packages.chroot/ between builds, eliminating repeated 900+ MB
downloads. Versions pinned via VERSIONS and substituted into package
lists at build time.
