UEFI PXE through signed shim and GRUB (Secure Boot)
UEFI machines were given syslinux.efi, which is unsigned: with Secure
Boot on (the default on much server hardware) the firmware refuses it
("Access Denied", seen on an OVMF lab VM), so such a machine could not
PXE-boot at all. They now get Debian's signed shim (bootx64.efi), which
loads the signed network GRUB (grubx64.efi); GRUB reads
grub/grub.cfg-<mac>, else grub/grub.cfg-default, and loads kernels
only as shim verifies them. Rack controllers write the GRUB menus from
the pxelinux menus they already get (same entries: kernel and initrd,
local disk via exit, power off via halt), so both always agree; BIOS
machines keep pxelinux. install.sh, install-rack.sh and bootstrap.sh
install shim-signed and grub-efi-amd64-signed and lay out the files.

Secure Boot covers the kernel; the initrd and the squashfs it fetches
are not covered by it.

# Install a rollcall rack controller on this host (Debian/Ubuntu). Run as root
# from this directory with the rollcall binary next to it, after enrolling:
#
# region$ rollcall controller join-code -name hall-b -addr REGION:443
# rack$ ./rollcall rack join <code> -url http://ADDR-ON-THE-SEGMENT
#
# which writes /etc/rollcall/rack.json and the rack's certificate; from then on
# rack and region talk over mutual TLS (rack.example.json shows the fields).
#
# The rack controller serves DHCP/TFTP (dnsmasq) on the VLANs the region
# assigns to it, keeps boot and OS images in a local cache, runs BMC commands
# and passes the node API through to the region.
