TODO for image-builder Project

1. Add a handler for boot.cmd

   • Implement processing and integration of boot.cmd during image creation.
   • Ensure compatibility with common boot scenarios.

2. Kernel Build from Custom Configurations

   • Develop a mechanism to compile the Linux kernel using custom .config files.
   • Provide clear documentation for users to supply and use their own configurations.

3. Custom Kernel Installation (Non-Repository)

   • Design a solution for installing custom-built kernels that are not available in standard repositories.
   • Consider integrating a kernel packaging or direct installation process.

4. Enhance U-Boot Writing Functionality

   • Finalize the function for writing U-Boot to /dev/loopX.
   • Add error handling, validation, and logging to ensure robustness.

5. Finalize Loop Device Unmount Function

   • Complete the function to properly unmount /dev/loop devices after use.
   • Implement safeguards to prevent accidental unmounting of active devices.

6. Root Password Setup

   • Resolve issues with systemd-firstboot for setting the root password.
   • Implement a workaround to delete the default root user before initializing a new password.
   • Alternatively, explore other methods for securely setting the root password during image creation.
