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.
5-crate Rust workspace implementing full VFAT support: fatd scheme daemon
(FSScheme with open/read/write/mkdir/unlink/rename/fstat), fat-mkfs (create
FAT12/16/32 with labels and cluster size), fat-label (read/write BPB + root-dir
volume labels), fat-check (verify + repair dirty flags, FSInfo, lost clusters,
orphaned LFN). 60 unit tests, 0 unwrap in production code. Included in all 5
redbear configs via redbear-device-services.toml.

- Add grub package to redbear-full-grub.toml so make all works from
a clean tree (the installer needs grub.efi before it runs)
- Fix stat -f%z (macOS-only) to stat -c%s (Linux) in GRUB recipe
- Normalize bootloader config value to lowercase in install_inner so
bootloader = "GRUB" from config files is accepted
- Add bad-cluster marker (0x0FFFFFF7) check in fat_tool.py
_next_cluster to prevent potential infinite loops on degraded media
- Fix file handle leak in fat_tool.py if _read_bpb raises
- Clean up temp directory in fetch_bootloaders on error
- Update AGENTS.md with GRUB recipe and installer documentation
- Update GRUB plan with clean-build prerequisite note
Documents the two-phase GRUB integration approach (post-build script
then installer-native), build notes for the three cookbook workarounds,
and measured artifact sizes. Sets efi_partition_size=16 in redbear-full
to accommodate GRUB plus Redox bootloader on the ESP.

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
