Clawdie Operator USB
This USB is your operator workstation, not the final runtime. Use it to
verify desktop, browser, networking, pi, and future deploy
flow.
Included now:
- XFCE desktop
- Firefox browser
- Tailscale package
- Bundled npm globals, including
pi - FreeBSD mac_do for kernel-enforced privilege escalation (no sudo)
Quick checks
pi --help tailscale version tailscale status firefox
What to do next
- Verify network access and browser usability.
- Authenticate Tailscale if you have an auth key.
- Use
pias the minimal assistant harness. - Later phases will add disk deploy, upgrade, and rescue flows.
Tailscale
If this USB was built without an auth key, join later with:
mdo -u root tailscale up
Privilege escalation
This USB uses FreeBSD's native mac_do instead of
sudo. Wheel group members escalate with mdo:
mdo -u root <command> mdo -u root service tailscaled restart mdo -u root networkmgr
Disk deployment
Disk deployment is intentionally deferred on this branch. This first milestone is only about a stable operator USB environment.
