PS/2 controller resilience:
- DisableFirst/DisableSecond commands now use retry (3 attempts)
instead of failing on first timeout
- Added 50ms settling delay before first command after firmware handoff
- Disable command failures are non-fatal (warn + continue) — a truly
absent controller fails later at self-test
- ps2d no longer panics on init failure — logs error and continues
so the system can still boot to login prompt without PS/2 input
Branding overrides:
- Added /etc/issue override with Red Bear OS pre-login banner
- Added /etc/motd override with Red Bear OS post-login message
- Fixes transaction conflict where userutils overwrites redbear-release
branding with upstream 'Redox OS' content
QEMU verified: boots to login prompt, no service errors
- IOAPIC: enable full IOAPIC initialization on AMD/Intel bare metal,
dual GSI 0/2 timer mapping for platform compatibility, NMI handler
uses raw COM1 PIO writes to avoid mutex deadlock
- HPET: counter validation, graceful fallback to PIT when HPET missing
- PS/2: fix 0xFE RESEND handling in all MouseState variants, add
controller flush/self-test retry/aux port test from Linux 7.0
- ACPI: defer AML evaluation to avoid blocking initfs driver spawn
- VT chain: remove duplicate rootfs service files (inputd, vesad,
fbcond, getty) that were already handled by initfs phase 1 and the
legacy 30_console script from minimal.toml
- QEMU verified: boots to login prompt, 20 rootfs units (was 26),
single login prompt (was double), only 1 expected error (wifictl)
Getty services now use respawn = true so init restarts them on
exit. redbear-live-mini expanded with additional boot-late services
and reorganized service ordering. Device services TOML gains new
entries for hardened daemon lifecycle.
Consolidate the active desktop path around redbear-full while landing the greeter/session stack and the runtime fixes needed to keep Wayland and KWin bring-up moving forward.
Add mc recipe (v4.8.30) with Redox-specific patch disabling PTY, resolver, subshell, and SFTP/FTP VFS. Build with ncurses against glib. Symlink into recipes/tui/. Add mc package to redbear-desktop, redbear-full, and redbear-minimal configs.

Derivative of Redox OS (https://www.redox-os.org) adding:
- AMD GPU driver (amdgpu) via LinuxKPI compat layer
- ext4 filesystem support (ext4d scheme daemon)
- ACPI fixes for AMD bare metal (x2APIC, DMAR, IVRS, MCFG)
- Custom branding (hostname, os-release, boot identity)
Build system is full upstream Redox with RBOS overlay in local/.
Patches for kernel, base, and relibc are symlinked from local/patches/
and protected from make clean/distclean. Custom recipes live in
local/recipes/ with symlinks into the recipes/ search path.
Build: make all CONFIG_NAME=redbear-full
Sync: ./local/scripts/sync-upstream.sh
