v11.52's ISO build failed at chroot_install-packages:
datacenter-gpu-manager-4-cuda13 : Depends: datacenter-gpu-manager-4-core
(= 1:4.5.2-1) but 1:4.6.0-1 is to be installed
cuda13/proprietary/proprietary-cuda13 all declare an exact-version
dependency on datacenter-gpu-manager-4-core, but core itself was never
listed, so apt's solver picked the newest core in the repo (4.6.0-1)
for the transaction and then reported the pinned variants as unmet
instead of resolving everything to 4.5.2-1. Pin core explicitly so
there's no ambiguity for the solver.

ISO Build
bee ISO is built inside a Debian 12 builder container via iso/builder/build-in-container.sh.
Requirements
- Docker Desktop or another Docker-compatible container runtime
- Privileged containers enabled
- Enough free disk space for builder cache, Debian live-build artifacts, NVIDIA driver cache, and CUDA userspace packages
Build On macOS
From the repository root:
sh iso/builder/build-in-container.sh
The script defaults to linux/amd64 builder containers, so it works on:
- Intel Mac
- Apple Silicon (
M1/M2/M3/M4) via Docker Desktop's Linux VM
You do not need to pass --platform manually for normal ISO builds.
Useful Options
Build with explicit SSH keys baked into the ISO:
sh iso/builder/build-in-container.sh --authorized-keys ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub
Force a clean rebuild of the builder image and build caches:
sh iso/builder/build-in-container.sh --clean-build
Use a custom cache directory:
sh iso/builder/build-in-container.sh --cache-dir /path/to/cache
Notes
- The builder image is automatically rebuilt if the local tag exists for the wrong architecture.
- The live ISO boots with Debian
live-boottoram, so the read-only medium is copied into RAM during boot and the runtime no longer depends on the original USB/BMC virtual media staying present. - Target systems need enough RAM for the full compressed live medium plus normal runtime overhead, or boot may fail before reaching the TUI.
- The NVIDIA variant installs DCGM 4 packages matched to the CUDA user-mode driver major version. For driver branch
580/ CUDA13.x, the package family isdatacenter-gpu-manager-4-cuda13rather than legacydatacenter-gpu-manager. - Override the container platform only if you know why:
BEE_BUILDER_PLATFORM=linux/amd64 sh iso/builder/build-in-container.sh
- The shipped ISO is still
amd64. - Output ISO artifacts are written under
dist/.
