+# Proxmox VE 9.2 install — pve1 (Intel NUC) → 192.168.10.4, target sdb
+#
+# The NUC's UEFI CANNOT unpack a ~1.8GB initramfs — it dies with
+# "initramfs unpacking failed: write error", leaving a TRUNCATED /proxmox.iso,
+# which then fails to loop-mount → "no device with valid ISO found".
+# (The ISO itself is fine and the HTTP transfer completes — verified in the
+# nginx log. RAM is fine too: 15881 MB. It's a firmware/early-boot limit.)
+#
+# So we DON'T ship the ISO in the initrd here. We boot only the kernel + a
+# lean initrd augmented with e1000e (the stock installer initrd has NO network
+# drivers at all). The ISO search fails, init drops to a debug shell, and you
+# run ONE command:
+#
+#     sh /netfetch.sh
+#
+# which brings up the NIC, streams the ISO onto /dev/sda (the 1TB HDD), and
+# re-execs init — which then finds it via the normal block-device path and
+# auto-installs to sdb. Nothing oversized ever goes through initramfs.
