The /etc/issue banner on both the live ISO and the installed system was a
oneshot after network-online.target that simply dropped the http://<ip>
line when DHCP hadn't delivered yet — so a slow NIC (first hardware bench,
2026-08-24) left the screen offering only proksi.local. On the ISO,
releng's root autologin on tty1 also made agetty --reload a no-op.
- furtka-issue.timer (ISO) / furtka-welcome.timer (target) re-run the
banner script every 5 s; services drop RemainAfterExit + network wait
- fallback line is always present: every global IPv4, or a 'no IP yet —
check cable / DHCP' hint; only rewrites + reloads on change
- build.sh removes releng's getty@tty1 autologin drop-in; banner tells
users a shell is root + Enter away

Two user-visible polish passes on top of the walking-skeleton install:
- Console welcome: live ISO's getty no longer shows the bare Arch prompt.
`/etc/hostname` is now `proksi` so avahi advertises `proksi.local`;
a systemd oneshot (`furtka-issue.service`, runs after
network-online.target) regenerates `/etc/issue` via
`/usr/local/bin/furtka-update-issue` to show both
`http://proksi.local:5000` (preferred, via mDNS — avahi and nss-mdns
are already in `packages.extra`) and the raw IP as a fallback for
networks where mDNS is flaky. `agetty --reload` nudges the already-
running login prompt to redraw.
- /install/log now polls a JSON endpoint (`/install/log.json`) every
3 s instead of meta-refresh, so expanding the collapsed log
`<details>` doesn't get eaten by the refresh. Noscript fallback
keeps the meta-refresh for JS-off users. When the install finishes,
the Done state shows a Reboot-now button that POSTs to
`/install/reboot` (guarded server-side to only reboot once status
is "done", so a panicked click mid-pacstrap can't brick the box).
A confirm() reminds the user to pull the USB / eject the ISO first.
End-to-end tested on a Proxmox VM 2026-04-14: boot → wizard →
archinstall → Done state → Reboot now → VM came back up → login as
created user → `docker ps` worked.
