# Progress
This file is now intentionally compact.
Detailed chronological history through Phase 18.2 has been archived at:
- `docs/reports/progress-log-through-phase18-2-freebsd.md`
For a broader narrative summary, see:
- `docs/PROG_SUMMARY.md`
## Current status
Fruix currently has:
- declarative system modeling on FreeBSD
- content-addressed system closures under `/frx/store`
- native FreeBSD base artifacts in `/frx/store`
- declarative FreeBSD source objects and source materialization
- source-driven native base builds from materialized source snapshots
- side-by-side source revisions and boot validation
- a host-driven non-interactive install path:
- `fruix system install`
- a bootable Fruix-managed installer environment:
- `fruix system installer`
- a bootable Fruix-managed installer ISO:
- `fruix system installer-iso`
- an explicit installed-system generation layout under:
- `/var/lib/fruix/system`
- explicit installed-system retention roots under:
- `/frx/var/fruix/gcroots`
- a validated installed-system generation switch/rollback workflow via:
- `fruix system status`
- `fruix system switch`
- `fruix system rollback`
- a validated separate in-system development environment overlay via:
- `/run/current-system/development-profile`
- `/run/current-development`
- `/usr/local/bin/fruix-development-environment`
- a validated host-initiated native base-build path inside a Fruix-managed guest via:
- real XCP-ng boot of a development-enabled Fruix system
- in-guest `buildworld` / `buildkernel`
- staged `installworld` / `distribution` / `installkernel`
Validated boot modes still are:
- `freebsd-init+rc.d-shepherd`
- `shepherd-pid1`
The validated Phase 18 installation work currently uses:
- `freebsd-init+rc.d-shepherd`
## Latest completed achievement
### 2026-04-05 — Phase 20.2 completed
Fruix now has a validated intermediate path where the host still orchestrates the workflow, but real FreeBSD native base-build work runs inside a booted Fruix-managed FreeBSD guest.
Highlights:
- development-enabled systems now expose canonical native-build compatibility links at:
- `/usr/include -> /run/current-system/development-profile/usr/include`
- `/usr/share/mk -> /run/current-system/development-profile/usr/share/mk`
- media builder versions were bumped so booted images and future installed targets pick up that rootfs layout change
- the validated guest build path now runs real FreeBSD native build steps inside the Fruix-managed guest:
- `buildworld`
- `buildkernel`
- `installworld`
- `distribution`
- `installkernel`
- staged install steps use:
- `DB_FROM_SRC=yes`
- so the staged install is driven by the declared source tree's account database rather than by the guest's minimal local `/etc` state
- the validated result now includes staged native artifact outputs for:
- kernel
- bootloader slice
- headers / `usr/share/mk`
Validation:
- `PASS phase20-host-initiated-native-build-xcpng`
Reports:
- `docs/system-deployment-workflow.md`
- `docs/GUIX_DIFFERENCES.md`
- `docs/reports/phase20-development-environment-freebsd.md`
- `docs/reports/phase20-host-initiated-native-builds-freebsd.md`
## Recent major milestones
- `1d00907``Add Fruix bootable installer environment`
- `2517710``Add non-interactive Fruix installation flow`
- `02a02e3``Document Fruix FreeBSD source policy`
- `865012e``Boot Fruix from distinct FreeBSD source revisions`
- `8150508``Validate side-by-side FreeBSD source revisions`
- `5cbf5b9``Build native bases from materialized FreeBSD sources`
## Active constraints
- local `bhyve` remains blocked under Xen due to lack of nested VT-x exposure
- XO self-service creation is still not usable with the current token
- real XCP-ng validation must continue to use:
- VM `90490f2e-e8fc-4b7a-388e-5c26f0157289`
- approved A/B VDIs:
- `0f1f90d3-48ca-4fa2-91d8-fc6339b95743`
- `7061d761-3639-4bec-87f7-2ba1af924eaa`
- local QEMU/TCG validation keeps conservative default SMP settings; `QEMU_SMP` remains overrideable
## Next step
Per `docs/PLAN_4.md`, the next planned step is:
- **Phase 20.3** — reassess and potentially prototype guest self-hosted base builds
Phase 20.2 is now complete: Fruix validates host-initiated native FreeBSD base builds running inside the approved real XCP-ng Fruix guest path.
