Some checks failed
Build SilverMetal Enhanced - Windows ISO / build (pull_request) Failing after 5m49s
fix(build): track driver .exe files (gitignore *.exe dropped netkvmp.exe -> DISM rejected NetKVM)
The global .gitignore '*.exe' rule silently excluded netkvmp.exe + netkvmco.exe when the
NetKVM driver was committed, so only inf/sys/cat shipped. netkvm.inf REQUIRES netkvmp.exe
([SourceDisksFiles] + netkvmp.CopyFiles), so Add-WindowsDriver failed every build with 'the
driver package could not be installed' -> no virtio NIC driver -> no VM network. Un-ignore
windows/drivers/** and force-add the referenced binaries.

GPD Pocket 4 driver pack, injected offline into the WIM (DISM /Add-Driver) by ../installer/build.ps1 stage 3.

Targets the Pocket 4 hardware a vanilla LTSC install may lack: Strix Point GPU, sensors / auto-rotate, Wi-Fi, fingerprint, modular-port controllers, fan/EC.

Sourcing (M2): confirm redistribution terms for the GPD driver pack. If redistribution is not permitted, store a sourced manifest (URL + SHA-256 + version, pinned in ../installer/inputs.manifest.json) and fetch at build time rather than committing the binaries.

Open question (hardening-spec §8): which drivers are actually absent from a vanilla LTSC install — determine on the physical unit.
