[syn990]

We should ammend the bootloader configuration to allow MBR to correctly boot.

# Below you will find all the mount and partition variables, which are used in syn-stage0.zsh
# Modify them for convenience, or use your own partitioning.

# This currently wipes sda, without any prompt. We need it to create a device label as this will help bootctl be more predictable
# You absolutely must run lsblk and check the disk
# It's set to gpt so a different script is needed for MBR setups.

Update on Project: Stage 1 Installation
We've successfully resolved the Stage 1 root issue, allowing for smoother execution of the installation process. Additionally, we've implemented separate functions for MBR and UEFI, with the UEFI process operating seamlessly as a zero-touch solution. However, we're currently facing difficulties with the bootloader setup, impacting the overall system boot process.

Changes Made:

• Addressed the Stage 1 chroot issue, ensuring a more robust installation process.
• Introduced separate functions for MBR and UEFI, enhancing modularity and ease of maintenance.
• Achieved a zero-touch solution for UEFI installations, streamlining the user experience.

Challenges Encountered:
Despite the successful resolution of the Stage 1 root issue, we're encountering complications with the bootloader setup. This issue is hindering the boot process and requires further investigation and troubleshooting to rectify.

Next Steps:
Conduct a thorough analysis of the bootloader setup to get a syslinux bootloader working.

While we've made significant progress in refining Stage 1 and achieving a zero-touch solution for UEFI installations, addressing the bootloader issue is paramount for the overall success of the project.
