console=tty0 sent kernel messages to the active VT (tty1), overwriting
the TUI. Changed to console=tty2 so kernel logs land on a dedicated
console. tty1 is now clean; operator can press Alt+F2 to inspect kernel
messages and Alt+F3 for an extra shell.

loglevel=3 was hiding all kernel messages on tty0/ttyS0 except errors.
Machine crashes (panics, driver oops, module failures) were silent on VGA.
Restored loglevel=7 so kernel messages up to debug are printed to both
tty0 (VGA) and ttyS0 (SOL). Journald MaxLevelConsole reduced to info
(was debug) to reduce noise on SOL while keeping it useful.

Replace "Bee Hardware Audit" branding with EASY-BEE across bootloader
and LiveCD: grub.cfg menu entries, echo ASCII art before menu,
motd banner, iso-volume and iso-application metadata.

Without a keepalive the kernel watchdog timer expires and reboots
the host mid-audit. Configuring RuntimeWatchdogSec lets systemd PID 1
reset /dev/watchdog every 30 s — well within the typical 60 s timeout.

build-nvidia-module.sh:
- Replace silent glob cp for libnvidia-ml/libcuda with find + explicit error
if library not found in extract dir (catches installer layout changes)
- Fix circular symlink bug: don't create .so.1 -> .so.1 if versioned file
is already named .so.1
- Verify .ko count > 0 after build, fail loudly if none produced
- Show lib cache in final summary
bee-nvidia:
- mknod failures are now logged with ewarn instead of silently suppressed
- If nvidia not in /proc/devices (no GPU hardware), log clearly and exit clean

Alpine uses mdev which has no rules for NVIDIA devices. Without /dev/nvidiactl
and /dev/nvidia{0-7}, nvidia-smi returns NVML_ERROR_LIBRARY_NOT_FOUND (exit 12)
even though kernel modules are loaded and libraries are present.
Fix: after insmod, read major numbers from /proc/devices and mknod the required
character devices (/dev/nvidiactl, /dev/nvidia{0-7}, /dev/nvidia-uvm).
Add /dev/nvidia* node checks to smoketest for earlier failure detection.

- bee-audit init.d: use --output file: so "audit output written" is logged
(stdout mode silently redirects, never emits the slog confirmation)
- build-nvidia-module.sh: use $KERNEL_SRC in find for .ko collection
(was hardcoded $EXTRACT_DIR/kernel, silent failure if path differs)
- smoketest: add bee-audit to required services (was never checked)
- smoketest: remove legacy bee-audit-debug from service list
- smoketest: internet ping → warn (live CD runs in isolated network, no internet)
- build.sh: auto-copy smoketest.sh → overlay/usr/local/bin/bee-smoketest
(removes manual sync hazard; smoketest.sh is now single source of truth)
- remove static overlay/usr/local/bin/bee-smoketest (generated by build.sh now)

- Pin linux-lts to exact KERNEL_PKG_VERSION=6.12.76-r0 in build and ISO package list
- Add build-time verification that compiled kernel version matches pin (fails loudly)
- Fix bee-audit-debug → bee-audit in genapkovl OpenRC registration (service was never starting)
- Add AUDIT_VERSION=0.1.0 to VERSIONS (was undefined, bee-release had empty fields)
- Pin linux-lts-dev version in second apk add in build-nvidia-module.sh
- Add /root/.profile to overlay so /usr/local/bin is in PATH for SSH sessions
- Remove "DEBUG MODE" from motd
- Fix smoketest: grep for slog "audit output written" instead of non-existent "audit completed"
- Document no-internet constraint in system-overview and runtime-flows
- Remove redundant genapkovl copy to /var/tmp (now found via ~/.mkimage/)

## ISO build consolidation
- Remove separate debug/prod split: overlay-debug/, build-debug.sh,
mkimg.bee_debug.sh, genapkovl-bee_debug.sh all deleted
- Single overlay: iso/overlay/ (was overlay-debug content)
- Single build script: build.sh (SSH, TUI, NVIDIA, vendor tools, bee-release)
- Single mkimage profile: bee (with dropbear, dialog, strace, gcompat, etc.)
## NVIDIA fixes
- Modules now stored at /usr/local/lib/nvidia/ instead of
/lib/modules/<kver>/extra/nvidia/ — modloop squashfs mounts over that
path at boot making overlay content there inaccessible
- bee-nvidia init: load via insmod (absolute path), not modprobe
- bee-nvidia init: create libnvidia-ml.so.1/libcuda.so.1 symlinks in /usr/lib/
- build-nvidia-module.sh: always install linux-lts-dev (not conditional) —
stale 6.6.x headers caused wrong-kernel modules that never loaded at runtime
- build-nvidia-module.sh: create soname symlinks in cache
- KERNEL_VERSION in VERSIONS updated 6.6 → 6.12
- gcompat added to ISO packages (nvidia-smi is a glibc binary on musl Alpine)
## Service ordering
- bee-audit: add `after bee-nvidia` so NVIDIA enrichment always succeeds
## New tooling
- iso/builder/smoketest.sh: SSH smoke test for post-boot ISO validation
- iso/builder/build-gpu-burn.sh: builds gpu_burn vendor binary (CUDA 12.8+)
- vendor/gpu_burn included automatically if placed in iso/vendor/
