feat(pxe-boot): add Debian bookworm minimal netboot menu entry
Adds a `fetch-debian-netboot.service` oneshot that downloads the Debian
bookworm netboot kernel and initrd from deb.debian.org on first boot,
stages them under /srv/pxe/http/debian/, and serves them via a generated
debian.ipxe chain script. The service is idempotent — it skips the
download if both files are already present.
Also merges the previously split systemd.tmpfiles.rules and
systemd.services blocks into a single systemd = { ... } attrset to
satisfy statix's repeated-keys lint.

The Debian Minimal entry chains `http://<pxeServerIp>/debian.ipxe`, which loads
|
||||||
|
the Debian bookworm netboot kernel and initrd from `/srv/pxe/http/debian/`. The
|
||||||
|
`fetch-debian-netboot.service` oneshot downloads these files from
|
||||||
|
`deb.debian.org` on first boot (idempotent — skips if files are already
|
||||||
|
present):

|
|
||||||

```text

||||||
|
/srv/pxe/http/debian/initrd.gz (Debian bookworm netboot initrd)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The service requires outbound internet access on the pxe-boot host. To
|
||||||
|
re-download (e.g. after a Debian point release), delete the files and restart
|
||||||
|
the service:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
rm /srv/pxe/http/debian/linux /srv/pxe/http/debian/initrd.gz
|
||||||
|
systemctl restart fetch-debian-netboot.service
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To update to a different Debian release, change `debianRelease` in
|
||||||
|
`modules/build-types/pxe-boot.nix` and redeploy.
