- Sunshine flatpak in first-boot list; autostarts with the console
account's session (bc250-sunshine-autostart, honors CONSOLE_KID_USER)
- bc250-personalize: one-shot display names from /etc/bc250-console.conf
- build-console.sh + console.env(.example): fill in usernames/passwords/
display names, get a fully personalized ISO — no post-install steps
beyond per-account logins. Generated files git-ignored (credentials)
- Docs: Moonlight is the remote-admin path; RDP marked blocked by the
mutter cursor-metadata screencast crash on GFX1013

GNOME Remote Desktop defaults RDP sessions to view-only; the whole
point of RDP here is the parent driving the session to install games.
Found during first real RDP setup on hardware.

Autostart reads CONSOLE_KID_USER from /etc/bc250-console.conf
(default: kid), so renaming the account is a pure on-box operation —
documented in OPERATIONS.md.

bazzite-steam-bpm races waitpid against Steam PIDs that may already
be gone when quitting a lingering instance, and its `if ! waitpid`
clobbers $? so every failure reports code=0 via zenity. Replace the
call with our own quit-and-wait (pgrep scoped to the kid's uid) and
launch bazzite-steam steam://open/bigpicture directly.

The v1 module's post-install notification runs `sudo -u` with every
human user newline-joined into a single name ("kid\nparent"), which
fails and kills the service mid-install on any box with two accounts.
Hit on first hardware boot; apps after the first never installed.

First hardware boot: the service gave up after ~12s of no network,
failed with a cryptic "Error 0" desktop popup, and left all baked
flatpaks uninstalled (its timer only re-arms on reboot). The GFN
installer's own retry loop succeeded once the network arrived.

Pinouts sourced from mothenjoyer69/bc250-documentation hardware.md.
Power switch = fused+switched IEC inlet on the AC side, with
AUTO_PWRON1 jumper 1-2 so the board boots when 12V appears.

NVIDIA's client ships from their own flatpak repo (com.nvidia.geforcenow),
which default-flatpaks can't add alongside Flathub — so a stamped oneshot
service installs it on first boot with retries. Docs note the BC-250 has
no hardware video decode: streams are CPU-decoded, keep to 1080p.

Bazzite base already covers the rest (max_map_count, zram, gamemode,
tuned profiles); governor stock curve (1000-1850 MHz, 85C throttle)
left as-is — ceiling tuning is documented in OPERATIONS.md for after
on-hardware thermal testing.

- Mask all suspend paths + dconf no-sleep/no-lock defaults (local + GDM):
the console must stay reachable over SSH/RDP at all times
- Autostart Steam Big Picture Mode for the kid account only
- Enable tailscaled (idle until 'tailscale up')
- First-boot flatpaks: ProtonUp-Qt, Heroic, RetroDECK
Already in the bazzite base, so not added: Steam, Tailscale, automatic
updates (uupd.timer), Firefox via first-boot flatpak manager.

VM smoke test of the first ISO reached GDM but no user existed
(bootc-image-builder ISOs install unattended; gnome-initial-setup is
not in the bazzite base). iso-config.toml creates parent (wheel) and
kid with placeholder passwords to change on first login.

First successful build 2026-07-06: image kernel-7.0.9-ogc3.2.fc44,
5 GB installer ISO via bootc-image-builder. Records the docker-specific
workarounds: native dockerd (not Docker Desktop), skopeo copy into
containers-storage, terra GPG key mount, --rootfs btrfs.

Based on 62fixolab/Latest-Bazzite-AMD-BC-250-Patched-Images @ 347fd4d.
Adds on top of the fork:
- recipes/bc250-console-gnome.yml: governor + gnome-remote-desktop +
openssh-server, sshd enabled, hhd.service masked, no signing module
(local build + ISO path)
- files/console/usr/bin/bc250-remote-setup: one-time on-box SSH/RDP setup
- files/console/usr/lib/bootc/kargs.d/50-bc250-ttm.toml: ttm memory kargs
- BUILD-CONSOLE.md: build -> ISO -> validation instructions
files/console/ is separate from files/system/ so the 40-CU unlock tooling
stays out of this stable 24-CU image.
