nixosModules.image builds a GPT disk image with systemd-repart: ESP with a
UKI carrying the store's verity root hash, an erofs /nix/store on a
dm-verity partition, a tmpfs root, an immutable /etc overlay and an ext4
state partition on /var. No Nix on the device; it is replaced as a whole.
The store is made with 4 KiB erofs blocks: systemd-repart passes the 512
byte sector size to mkfs.erofs, and libblkid cannot verify the checksum of
such a superblock, so udev never reported the file system and the initrd
waited forever for /dev/mapper/usr.
examples/image (nix build .#image) is a hardware test build with a debug
console password; checks.image boots the image under UEFI.

router.* schema (wan, lans, dns.forwarders) compiled to systemd-networkd,
a generated nftables ruleset with NAT, Kea DHCPv4 and Unbound, plus build-time
assertions against lock-out and interface conflicts.
tests/basic.nix is a three-node VM test (upstream/router/client) covering WAN
DHCP, LAN DHCP and DNS, NAT, WAN-deny and LAN SSH/ping. `nix run .#lab` boots
the same topology in tmux with one console pane per VM and the driver REPL.
