# alt-controller-image
An independent Rust proof of concept that produces an ALT Controller rootfs tarball without invoking `mkimage-profiles`, `mkimage`, or GNU Make.
## Pipeline
1. Rust parses `profiles/alt-controller.profile`.
2. The profile uses vendored package lists under `profiles/package-lists/`.
3. Rust initializes an isolated Hasher work root with `hsh --initroot-only`.
4. Rust installs the resolved package set with `hsh-install`.
5. Rust archives `work/alt-controller/chroot` to `out/alt-controller-rootfs.tar` using `tar`, excluding Hasher's `.host` helper directory.
Hasher is intentionally the only external build dependency in this slice. It supplies ALT package resolution and isolation; the image/profile orchestration belongs to this project.
## Build
```bash
cargo test
cargo build --release
sudo -u hermes ./target/release/alt-controller-image
```
The output is:
```text
out/alt-controller-rootfs.tar
```
## Scope
The goal is a working, independent `alt-controller` rootfs tarball. This first slice packages the target’s vendored controller, systemd, and OpenSSH lists plus the explicit target packages and real-time kernel selection. It does not yet reproduce every post-install script or VM-image conversion behavior from the legacy meta-profile; those become separately testable Rust pipeline stages rather than Make fragments.
