Run complete rendered installers and their emitted postboot scripts in
private Linux filesystems. Cover service selection, flag aliases, defaults,
debug output, ordering and failures, and select the test in CI.
Exercise the complete ospkgs and otherpkgs scripts with recorded package
commands. Check unattended options, pkglist environment, failure status,
and CUDA architecture handling without extracting source fragments.
Use the production repository probes and package names. Check that
missing repositories and failed queries stop both installers before any
package transaction, and that similar package names do not satisfy EPEL.
Run OS detection in a private filesystem with the real release parser.
Remove the rewritten-source Perl harness and require GNU awk for the
legacy Red Hat fallback.
xCAT/postscripts/bmcsetup had drifted behind
xCAT-genesis-scripts/usr/bin/bmcsetup: four recent BMC fixes were applied
to the genesis copy only. Bring them over, so the two copies differ only in
log_label:
- skip BMC LAN settings that already match (verify before set) - 8d7ccc2d8
- enable BMC setup for Lenovo SR635/SR655 - 6dbc16c21
- support Intel Walker Pass (S9200WK) BMC LAN - 49c3e94a0
- settle after an IBM BMC port change; support long BMC passwords - 563a08362
A mechanical sync of already-reviewed code, not new logic; not tested on
hardware.

reg_linux_diskless_installation_flat fails on aarch64 at the check
"lsdef $$CN | grep vmothersetting" matched against "machine". The case
stops there, so the diskless provisioning it exists to measure is never
asserted.
The case sets vmothersetting to machine:invalid, confirms the node still
provisions, then replaces it with a valid machine type and confirms
again. The second step selects that type by architecture and knows only
ppc64, x86_64 and riscv64. On aarch64 the variable stays empty, chdef
clears vmothersetting, and the check that looks for the word "machine"
returns 1.
Give aarch64 the machine type QEMU uses for it, which is virt, the same
value riscv64 already gets. The other three architectures keep the value
they had.
Measured on xcat-ci/xcat-test-el10-aarch64 #9: the case reported Failed
at this check, 08:36:51Z, while genimage and packimage returned 0 and
the node reached status=booted with rootfs on / type tmpfs and
IMAGENAME alma10.2-aarch64-netboot-compute.

blackbox_prov_failing_at_one_place fails about 1 run in 30 on the
GitHub runner: missing-ptr/getdestiny expects discover and gets the
state of provtestcn, because xcatd still resolves 10.99.1.11 to
provtestcn.
xcatd names a client with gethostbyaddr, which on the runner reaches
systemd-resolved. systemd-resolved rereads /etc/hosts at most every 2
seconds, so for up to 2 seconds after makehosts -d it still returns the
removed entry. do_run_ordering sent getdestiny in that window.
do_run_ordering now waits until getent hosts no longer names the node
before it runs missing-ptr, and fails the stage after 10 seconds.
