…res + warnings scroll past too fast; empirical from physical hardware-support test; 3rd empirical anchor in same test session as B-0832 + B-0833) Per operator 2026-05-26: "i got some failures and warings on install of nixos not sure if it matters it scrolled by to faster have gh login this is exactly what i'm hoping you can log and test in ci" Two observations: 1. Install failures + warnings scroll past faster than human read speed 2. gh login not reached; scroll-past blocks diagnosis Files B-0834 as P2 substrate-engineering target. 2-approach scoping: - Approach A (preferred): tee install output to /tmp/zeta-install-*.log + copy to /mnt/var/log/zeta-install.log on completion - Approach B (upgrade path): script(1) wrapper records full session including ANSI + timing (replayable via scriptreplay) P2 priority — diagnostic enabler, not hard install blocker. This row is the OPERATOR-SIDE analog to B-0831's CI-SIDE cascade #6 serial-console-as-workflow-artifact. Both solve the same fundamental problem (preserve install output for later review) at different surfaces (real-hardware operator vs QEMU CI). Both compose; both land separately. THREE empirical anchors in ONE physical hardware-support test session (B-0832 nmtui WiFi rescan + B-0833 interactive-login vs baked-keys tension + this row B-0834 log preservation) is strong validation of B-0831's reframing: physical-test-as-first-class-hardware- compatibility-matrix-substrate produces real-world substrate- engineering targets that CI emulation cannot reproduce within minutes of B-0831's own landing.

Summary
Per operator 2026-05-26: "i got some failures and warings on install of nixos not sure if it matters it scrolled by to faster have gh login this is exactly what i'm hoping you can log and test in ci"
Two observations packed into one report
2-approach scoping
P2 priority — diagnostic enabler, not hard install blocker.
The operator-side analog to B-0831
B-0831 cascade #6 captures full serial console as workflow-artifact in CI. This row is the OPERATOR-SIDE analog: preserve the log on the install target so operator can review post-failure on real hardware, BEFORE B-0831 lands.
3 empirical anchors in 1 test session
Strong validation of B-0831's reframing within minutes of its own landing: physical-test-as-first-class-hardware-compatibility-matrix-substrate produces real-world substrate-engineering targets that CI emulation cannot reproduce.
