 ==== golden image ====
-After stateful imaging we touch another file on imaged server then build a golden image. The touching of this new file represents customixing and testing the node. So for complex designs we might put the node temporarily on the internet and install nvidia drivers and toolkit. And perhaps install software that will optimize itself based on resources found (like gromacs/lammps probing gpu models for proper architecture). Then we build a golden image.
+After stateful imaging we touch another file on imaged server then build a golden image. The touching of this new file represents customizing and testing the node prior to creating golden image. So for complex designs we might put the node temporarily on the internet and install nvidia drivers and toolkit for example. And perhaps install software that will optimize itself based on resources found (like gromacs/lammps probing gpu models for proper architecture). Then we build a golden image when everything works as expected. Hard to do in a CHROOT environment.

+Awesome. You also have a backup now. Image away. And no need for a dhcp server to always be at the ready. Linux will fix journal file system errors 99% of the time if rebooted from say a utility power loss.\\ Thank you Warewulf team.
+I also see there are EFI and EFI + NVME filesystem examples in ''/etc/warewulf/filesystem/examples''
+==== logger ====
+For some reason, after vnfs has compiled and deployed ''/dev/log'' is a socket file generating permission denied errors. Manual fix to apply, maybe put in ''/etc/rc.local'' in future
+<code>
+cd /dev
+mv log log-orig
