Commit Message

Badrikesh Prusty June 16, 2025, 9:44 a.m. UTC 
Fix image installation when isar-image-installer rootfs is booted as read-only
by ensuring /tmp is mounted as tmpfs.

With the latest isar installer, Bmaptool now creates the /tmp/progress pipe to
track and display installation progress in a progress bar.

This change utilizes systemd's tmp.mount to mount /tmp as tmpfs. Since systemd
versions up to Debian Bookworm ship tmp.mount in /usr/share/systemd/, the file
must be copied to a directory where systemctl can enable it.
For systemd versions 256.x and newer, tmp.mount is shipped in the appropriate
location: /usr/lib/systemd/system/tmp.mount
