I'm using thinstation 6.2-Stable, git cloned 2022-04-01. I'm trying to get the local-install process working but seem to be missing some pieces of the puzzle. I have a machine configured the way I want it, network booted and running, with runtime config files downloaded via http. All that is working fine. My next step was to try to use local-install.sh to install so that I could support local booting in some cases. My first choice was to use the local nvme drive in this machine, but the nvme drive is not detected, even when running a --allmodules build for hwlister. Is there nvme support in ts6.2? If there is, and if I get this working with my --allmodules build, what modules, packages and params may I need to retain in my customized machine configuration for nvme storage support? My next attempt was to use a usb drive. With a --allmodules build the usb drive is detected and working with local-install.sh. However with my configured build it is not detected. What modules, packages and params may I need to add to my build.conf to support usb storage devices? The next problem I've encountered is with the refind boot-image stuff. Documentation/README.local-install says to copy these directories: build/boot-images/refind build/boot-images/syslinux to "local-install". I have my boot images set to: param bootimages "iso syslinux pxe refind" and during the build process I see output about it creating the refind image, and no errors are generated, but I don't find any refind subdirectory as the documentation tells me to copy to my boot location. Is the documentation missing something that has changed, or is my build process not generating the refind folder in the correct location? There is stuff generated under build/boot-images/syslinux that is related to EFI booting. Is that what I'm supposed to copy? Do I just copy the entire syslinux folder as is, or do I copy some of it to local-install/refind? I also see thinstation/boot/efi/EFI/refind/. Is that what I'm supposed to copy to local-install/?
